How To Make Roasted Potatoes

INGREDIENTS

  • The Potatoes: For this recipe, you’re going to want to pick potatoes that are right in the middle of the waxy-starchy spectrum. For baked potatoes, starchy russet potatoes are the best. For potato salad, thin-skinned waxy potatoes like red bliss or fingerling are a good option. For oven-roasted potatoes, you want something in the middle, and that means Yukon Gold. The thin skin helps potatoes heat quickly and evenly (not to mention gets wonderfully crisp in the oven), and the centers stay creamy and tender—never mushy. I recommend going for baby Yukon Gold for that small and crispy bite.
  • Olive Oil: Use your favorite extra-virgin olive oil, or consult our list of the best (and worst!) olive oil brands for inspo.
  • Seasonings: The best way to season your potatoes? I suggest parsley, rosemary, and thyme (along with garlic cloves), along with salt and pepper to taste and a touch of red pepper flakes. This is a classic and simple way to season the potatoes, but really, any herbs or spices are welcome here. Try hot smoked paprika and turmeric for spicy, herbal potatoes or za’atar and cumin for floral, smoky potatoes.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

It couldn’t be easier to make roasted potatoes perfectly crispy and well-seasoned. After preheating the oven to 425°, toss your potatoes with oil, garlic, and herbs first either in a bowl or on a large metal Baking sheet. Then season with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes.

Bake until the potatoes are golden and fork tender. This should take around 35 to 40 minutes, but feel free to let them go a little bit longer if you really want to get that crispy exterior.

Recipe Tips

  • How to make (extra) crispy roasted potatoes: My motto is the higher the temp, the better. Roast your potatoes at 425° to get that beautifully golden and crisp outside and creamy inside. I like to make sure the cut side is down on the pan and DO NOT toss them while Baking. I wait until the end (the last 10 or 15 minutes) to flip and stir them around.

Storage

While roasted potatoes are usually best fresh out the oven, they can still make great leftovers. Let them cool down completely before storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat them in the oven or on the stovetop to bring back that crispiness.
