Notes

To achieve perfectly roasted potatoes, ensure uniform size for even cooking, don’t overcrowd the baking sheet, stir halfway through, and broil at the end for extra crispiness. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; pan-fry when reheating for best texture.
