Sandra’s Top Tips
- Using freshly grated Parmigiano cheese makes a big difference in the flavor
- Make sure the potatoes are in a single layer on the baking sheet
- The size of your potato bites will impact your cooking time with bigger pieces taking longer
- Your potatoes are done when you can insert a fork easily into them
- Before serving you can top with fresh herbs, dry chives or more grated Parmigiano
- Serve with sour cream and chives, garlic aioli, ranch dressing, creamy dill sauce, gravy, or ketchup on the side.
Why are my roasted potatoes not crispy?
If your oven is not hot enough, or your baking pan is too overcrowded the potatoes will not get as crispy.
How to reheat roasted red skin potatoes
To reheat your leftover pan roasted red potatoes, allow them to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes. Cover in foil and bake at 400°F for 10 to 15 minutes or until heated through.
