Tips to get crispy roasted potatoes
To make the perfect crispy potato wedges, you only need a few simple tricks.
- Preheat the oven with the pan in the oven. That way everything is super hot and starts getting crispy right away!
- Do not overcrowd your pan. You need to make sure that your potato wedges have enough room around each piece for the hot oven air to surround them and make them crispy. If the potatoes are too close together they will steam and get soggy instead of roast and get crispy. If you need to use two pans, that’s ok!
One of the easiest ways to make dinner feel less stressful is to have a handful of side dishes you know by heart.
When you don’t have to reinvent the wheel every week, meal planning becomes much simpler. Pair these potatoes with grilled chicken, pork chops, burgers, sandwiches, or even breakfast-for-dinner and you’ve got an easy meal that comes together without much thought.
