Recipe: Peel and cut 4 medium yukon gold potatoes into about 1 1/2-inch pieces.
โ
OPTIONAL:Soak in enough water to cover, plus 2 teaspoons salt, for 20 to 30 minutes.
โ
Drain the potatoes.
โ
Preheat the oven to 425F.
โ
Boil about 5 cups water (or enough to cover the potatoes by 2-inches). Add 1 tablespoon salt, and the potato pieces.
โ
Cook for about 7 minutes, or until the potatoes are just fork tender but still meet some resistance in the middle.
โ
Drain the potatoes and transfer them back to the empty hot saucepan for about 30 seconds so they dry out. Give them a really good shake in the saucepan to rough them up and break up the outer layers. The outsides should look a bit messy.
โ
Transfer the potatoes back to the colander.
โ
Use a large rimmed baking sheet that can fit the potatoes in a single layer without them touching.
โ
Add enough olive oil to the baking sheet to cover the base. There should be a very thin layer of oil. Place the baking sheet with the oil into the oven at 425F for about 3 minutes, or until the oil shimmers but is below the smoke point.
โ
Remove the baking sheet and place the potatoes onto the hot oil.
Sprinkle with salt. Use a spatula to toss the potatoes in the oil until they are coated. (You can also add fresh herbs.)
โ
Roast the potatoes for 20 minutes without disturbing.
โ
Toss the potatoes and roast for about another 10 minutes, or until crispy.
โ
salt to taste.
