Want a quick, delectable side dish? Test out these simple oven-roasted potatoes! They taste bright and strong, with crunchy edges and creamy centers.

I’m advocating for roasted potatoes today. It looks like mashed potatoes and potato gratin are hot right now because Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away.

Yes, the flavors of these traditional potato dishes are great, but oven-roasted potatoes offer a unique and equally mouthwatering flavor.

This recipe is for you if you need an emergency Christmas side dish that your guests will adore. Here’s why:

1. browned potato skins. Are crisp, puffy potato skins hot from the oven—is there anything better?
2. whipped centers Each mouthful has a wonderful variety of textures thanks to the irresistible golden brown rims that give way to the incredibly creamy center.
3. the draping Since these roasted potatoes are only coated with olive oil, salt, and pepper, it is tempting to eat them directly from the sheet pan. But I prefer to go a step further. While they’re still warm, I mix them in a strong, zingy vinaigrette made with lemon, Dijon mustard, and rosemary. When the potatoes have absorbed it, they have become rich, vibrant, and completely appealing.

Undoubtedly, we are addicted to these simple oven-roasted potatoes. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do, whether you serve them for supper on a holiday or any other night of the week.

POTATOES: HOW TO ROAST THEM

Choosing the proper potato variety is the first step to preparing delicious oven-roasted potatoes. Large russet potatoes should not be used in this dish because of their texture, which is excessively dry and chalky.

German butterball or fingerling potatoes would also be tasty, but I prefer to use a combination of red potatoes and small Yukon golds.

Next, cut your potatoes into pieces of comparable sizes. To guarantee even cooking, this step is essential. You might not chop all of your potatoes in the same way if they are all different sizes.

For instance, you might wish to cut smaller potatoes in half and larger ones into halves. Throughout the board, aim for sections of around 1 inch.

the time has come to bake! On a baking sheet covered with parchment paper, spread the chopped potatoes and season them with salt, pepper, and olive oil. They should be roasted in a 425° oven until they are soft and the edges are golden.

When they are still warm, combine them with the dressing after allowing them to slightly cool. Add salt and pepper to taste, add parsley, and then serve!

POTATOES IN THE OVEN: TIPS

• If your oven has convection, use it. Air flows continuously within a convection oven, which is perfect for achieving crisp, golden brown edges on roasted veggies like potatoes, tomatoes, and butternut squash, to name a few. If you do, start checking your potatoes sooner than you would normally because it frequently cuts cook times.
• Potatoes should not be crowded on the baking sheet. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer, leaving some space between each one for the best results. Overcrowding will cause them to simmer in the oven rather than char and crisp up.
• As soon as they are warm, dress them. Roasted potatoes should always, always be dressed while they’re still warm. They’ll take in the rich, tangy tastes of the dressing more fully, resulting in an extra-delicious end product. About this dressing, additional roasted vegetables would also taste great with it. Attempt it next with cauliflower or Brussels sprouts!
• Change the dressing. Instead, try combining the potatoes with chimichurri. Or simply don’t clothe them at all! Using oven-roasted potatoes for dinner is only one option! Try including them in a breakfast burrito or serving them at brunch alongside a frittata or breakfast casserole. Skip the dressing if you do. As an alternative, season them with smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, and garlic powder before baking them.
