Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 pounds Medium-sized potatoes, preferably Yukon Gold Yukon Gold for their creamy texture
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder For that strong garlic flavor!
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil To help the coating stick and crisp up beautifully
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated For that cheesy crunch
  • Salt and pepper To taste
  • Fresh parsley For garnish, adding a pop of color and freshness

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature will help achieve a perfect crispness.
  2. Prep the Potatoes: Wash and peel the potatoes if you prefer; otherwise, leave the skin on for added texture. Cut them into quarters or bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
  3. Season the Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the potato pieces and toss until they are well-coated in the mixture.
  4. Add the Parmesan: Sprinkle the grated parmesan over the potatoes and toss again until each piece is fully covered.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure an even golden-brown color.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Once golden and crispy, remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy the delicious crunch!

Notes

Leftover crispy potatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes to maintain their crispy texture. Customize your flavor by adding herbs like rosemary or thyme.
