FAQs
Can I use other types of potatoes for this recipe?
Yes, you can use Yukon gold or russet potatoes, but red potatoes hold their shape best and roast nicely without becoming too soft.
Do I need to peel the potatoes?
No peeling is necessary. The skin of red potatoes adds texture and nutrients, and it crisps up deliciously during roasting.

Ingredients
Potatoes
- 1 1/2 lbs red potatoes, large diced
Seasoning and Coating
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set it aside to prepare for roasting.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced red potatoes with melted butter, parmesan cheese, garlic salt, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.
- Arrange in Dish: Pour the coated potatoes into the prepared baking dish. Spread them out evenly without overlapping too much to ensure uniform roasting and crispiness.
- Roast Covered: Cover the baking dish with foil and place it in the oven. Roast the potatoes for 30 minutes, allowing them to cook through gently under the foil.
- Uncover and Finish Roasting: Remove the foil, stir the potatoes well to redistribute and promote even browning. Return the dish to the oven and roast uncovered for an additional 30 minutes until the potatoes are crispy and golden brown.

Notes
- Use large dice for the potatoes to ensure they cook evenly and develop a nice crispy texture.
- Stirring halfway through roasting helps prevent sticking and promotes even browning.
- For extra crispiness, you can broil for the last 2-3 minutes but watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or air fryer to retain crispiness.
- Using garlic salt along with additional salt balances flavor but adjust salt amount to taste.
