I had a friend suggest using Extra Virgin Olive Oil in place of just plain oil, which could be vegetable oil, etc. He says that it tastes much better.
I am going to give it a try. There are several variations in the comments that sound very good.
Thanks,

>>olive oil (extra or other . . )
basically, we're talking roasted potatoes. "mechanically" the oil protects the surfaces of the chunks so they don't get dry & leather-like.
how to "flavor up" the potatoes is the next specific of the OP - toss in garlic & allow the heat to 'cook out' any raw garlic taste.
extra virgin, infused oils, herbs of pretty much any kind, etc. - all those variants simply boost the flavor of the dish in one direction or another. there is a marked difference between rosemary and parsley 'flavor' - which way to go is up to the cook and influenced by what else is being served.
the major trick is mastering the art/technique of getting the potato cooked and crisp. undercooked = raw potato, not so good.... overcooked = mush or burnt or dried out, again, not the best aspiration.
basically I'd say "have it your way!"
it's similar to the roasting temps - I don't disagree that high temp roasting adds a bit of vegetable caramelization, which is tasty - the danger is,,,, don't walk away - high temps = less time tolerance which can = fast disasters.
if it's all quiet / leisurely in the kitchen, I'm on it. if I've got a holiday crowd houseful with thousands of things that need precise time attention, I'm prone to temps lower&slower - more time to recovery from those "ACKK!" moments. one can always crank up the temp on a slowpoke dish - but I've learned than too late turning down the temp does not make the charcoal dissolve . . . |

I have made this recipe at least a dozen times and it is always amazing. The cook time for me is at least 20 minutes longer than the instructions state, but I also like them very crispy. I would go easy on the salt and pepper before putting them in the oven because the potatoes seem to absorb too much of out, literally baking right into them, thus making you double up on the salt/pepper after they come out to actually taste it. My suggestion would be to salt and pepper to taste as you mix in the garlic (last step). Happy cooking. |
