What types of potatoes are best for roasting?

Yukon Gold and red potatoes are excellent choices for roasting due to their creamy texture and ability to develop a lovely, crispy surface. Each type of potato contributes unique flavors and textures, but both yield delicious results when roasted.

Can I use other oils besides olive oil?

Yes, while olive oil is a popular choice for roasting due to its flavor and health benefits, you can use oils such as avocado oil or canola oil. Each offers different flavor profiles and smoke points that may enhance your potatoes.

What other seasonings can I add?

You can customize your Oven-Roasted Potatoes with various seasonings like onion powder, cayenne pepper, or fresh herbs like parsley or thyme. Experimenting with different spice blends can create new flavor combinations to suit your taste.

How do I prevent my roasted potatoes from becoming soggy?

To avoid soggy potatoes, ensure they are arranged in a single layer on the baking sheet without overlapping. This allows for proper airflow, which is crucial for achieving a crispy texture.

What can I serve with Oven-Roasted Potatoes?

Oven-Roasted Potatoes pair wonderfully with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad. They can also enhance comfort foods like casseroles or serve alongside sauces and dips, making them a versatile side dish.
