Tips for Roasting Potatoes
When it comes to roasting the potatoes, the best advice we can give you is to make sure the potatoes are cubed evenly. This ensures even cooking. We usually cut the potatoes into ½-inch cubes.
Tossing the potatoes in the oil before seasoning them helps to make sure the seasoning sticks to the potatoes.
The potatoes roast best in a single layer. We use a large cooking pan to cook them and make sure they are spread evenly on the pan.
Do You Need To Boil Potatoes Before Roasting?
No, the potatoes do not need to be boiled first. By soaking the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before roasting, it removes some of the starch. This will help to make the potatoes crispier without having to boil them first.
Different Ways To Roast Potatoes
The oven is not the only way to roast potatoes. During the winter months, we make these in the oven.
But come spring and summer, this recipe gets done in the smoker or on the BBQ. Both of these work just like an oven, but they add flavour through smoke and charcoal.
We have roasted potatoes on both charcoal and gas BBQs, and the results are delicious smoky roasted potatoes.
How To Serve Roasted Potatoes with Garlic Sauce
When serving these potatoes, the garlic sauce can be poured over the potatoes or served on the side for dipping.
We like to serve roasted potatoes with beef, chicken or pork. They go with just about every type of meat.
And this recipe is easily made in double and triple batches to serve a crowd.
Storing Leftovers
The potatoes can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in the oven, air fryer or microwave.
The garlic sauce can be stored in a mason jar or covered container in the fridge for up to one month. Use it as a sauce for not only potatoes, but also as a sauce for meatloaf, on burgers, or on fries.
Garlic Sauce is also great served with Parmesan Melting Potatoes.
