# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The potatoes get impossibly crispy on the outside while staying creamy and tender inside
  • Minimal prep work for maximum flavor payoff
  • These reheat beautifully so you can make them ahead
02 -
  • Crowding the baking sheet will steam the potatoes instead of roasting them crispy
  • Cut side down is non negotiable if you want that restaurant style caramelized flat bottom
  • The parchment paper is not optional unless you enjoy scrubbing baked on starch off your bakeware
03 -
  • Make sure your potatoes are completely dry before tossing with oil or they will steam instead of crisp
  • If your garlic starts browning too quickly tent the pan loosely with foil
