What PPs said above about size/type - but we toss ours in garlic, rosemary, salt, pepper before roasting and they are so delicious.

+1 Mine turn out great every time. Usually use avocado oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Works with the tiny potatoes left whole, or the mid size ones cut into halves/quarters.

I get crispy delicious potatoes without parboiling. I toss in EVOO but I also spray my pan with an olive oil spray. I don’t toss them but I do make sure they all land cut side down.

Roast at 425 for 30 minutes or until brown. They will be creamy on the inside and crunchy on the outside.


Yes, parboiling is key! You can add spices other than salt, too, but this method is good.

I like a mix of small red, golden and purple potatoes. Quarter, toss in olive oil and salt (and, optional, fresh garlic). Spread out on nonstick foil on a cookie sheet and put into oven preheated to 425. Check and toss every once in a while until done.

This - or 20 min @ 400 in air fryer.

What type of potato? - fingerling or new potatoes
Sliced or whole? - we slice them at least in half, if not smaller
seasonings? herbs? s/p? fat/oil? - no more than a teaspoon of fancy EVOO, plus Everything but the Bagel seasoning
time and temp? - an hour at 425, stirring every 15 minutes
