What’s in oven-roasted potatoes?

FAQs
Yes! Just cut larger potatoes into bite-sized chunks so they cook evenly. Baby potatoes are fun for color and presentation, but any potato variety works. I also love russet potatoes in this recipe!
Nope! Baby potatoes have thin, tender skins that crisp up beautifully when roasted. Just give them a good wash before tossing with the oil and seasoning.
Keep roasted potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven or air fryer to bring back that crispiness.
