I followed the recipe exactly, but my potatoes didn't turn out as fluffy as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These potatoes were okay, but I've had better. I think I'll stick to my old recipe.

These potatoes were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some butter or sour cream next time.

So easy and delicious! I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit. My family loves them.

This recipe is a classic for a reason! The potatoes were fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I added a little bit of garlic powder and paprika to the olive oil before brushing it on the potatoes, which gave them a delicious flavor.
