How do I get crispy parmesan potatoes?
- Use the broiler: When there is a minute or two left turn the broiler on and place the potatoes closer to the top of the oven. Broil for 1-2 minutes. Watch carefully because they can go from crispy to charred very quickly. - Soak in water: Once the potatoes have been cut, soak them in cold water for at least an hour. This will help remove some starch from the potato allowing them to be fluffy in the center and crisp on the outside. - Don’t crowd the pan. Overcrowding does not allow for all sides of the potatoes to cook evenly and crisp up. - Add a ½ to 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to the ziploc bag to help with crispiness.
These tips will ensure you get crispy potatoes every time!
PREPARING AHEAD OF TIME
- Prepare partway by cutting the potatoes and soak them in a bowl of water for up to 24 hours. Be sure all the potatoes are covered in water otherwise the potatoes exposed to air will turn brown. If you’re going to soak them for more than a couple of hours keep the bowl in the fridge. When you’re ready to bake, drain the water, pat dry, season and bake according to directions. - Bake up to a day in advance. Keep the potatoes covered in the fridge. Re roast the potatoes in a hot oven for about 10 minutes to heat and crisp the back up. Flip them after 5 minutes. (this also works for leftovers) - Bake the potatoes, cool and store in the freezer for 1-2 months. To reheat them place the potatoes on a baking sheet and roast at 400 degrees F for about 22 min or until hot and crisp
How do I prep the potatoes to store in the freezer?
You cannot freeze raw potatoes as they will turn black and mushy. So you will need to bake them before freezing. Once the potatoes cool, flash freeze them. You do this by putting the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Stick in the freezer for 2-3 hours. Once frozen place the potatoes in an airtight freezer safe container.
