OVEN ROASTED POTATOES RUSSET RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Peel the potatoes and cut into quarters. Blot each potato piece with a paper towel to absorb excess moisure and put in a bowl.
• Pour oil over the potatoes. With your hands, spread the oil all over the potatoes, so all the potato pieces are coated with oil.
• Put potatoes on the baking sheets (make sure the potatoes are not touching each other). Put in the oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are deep golden brown and tender when pierced with the fork.
• Remove the oven roasted potatoes from the oven. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning.
• Number of servings (yield): 4

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes well. Cut potatoes into 1 inch cubes.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the cubed potatoes and cover them with cold water. Let the potatoes soak in the water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
• Once potatoes have soaked, drain and discard the water from the potatoes. Keep potatoes in the large mixing bowl.
• Preheat oven to 425°F. Spray a large baking sheet with non-stick olive oil spray. Set aside.
• In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, Kosher salt, black pepper, and dried parsley.
• Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the potatoes. Gently mix the potatoes to ensure they are all covered with the seasoning.
• Evenly spread the seasoned potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet. Ensure the potatoes aren't touching so they have room to crisp.
• Place the potatoes into the preheated oven for about 20 minutes. The potatoes should crisp up on the bottom side. (if the potatoes aren't crispy on the bottom, give them another 5 minutes to bake)
• After the 20 minutes, turn potatoes over and place back in the oven for another 10 minutes. Potatoes should be crispy on the outside and tender and soft inside.
• Remove potatoes, taste for seasoning, re-season if needed.
