How to Make Crispy Roasted Potatoes

Step 1

Bring a large pot to a boil and add the salt and baking soda.  Add the potatoes and parboil them for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 425F and line 1-2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 3

Remove from water, strain and transfer to a large bowl. To the bowl, add the salt, pepper, onion powder, oil, garlic and butter. Stir gently.

Step 4

Transfer potatoes to a baking sheet. You need to make sure each potato has room to breathe and is cut-side down.  You may need to use two baking sheets depending on how many potatoes you cook.

Step 5

Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.

Step 6

Remove from the oven, flip each potato and evenly distribute with fresh thyme.

Step 7

Cook for another 20 minutes or until perfectly crispy and golden.

Step 8

Serve with fresh lemon (optional) but highly recommended if enjoyed with a fresh salad or greens.

Step 9

But honestly, you can...Enjoy. With. Anything.
