Frequently Asked Questions

How do you keep roasted potatoes crispy?

When ready to enjoy the potatoes again, cover with foil and roast in the oven for about 10 minutes. Next, remove the foil and bake for 5-7 minutes until crispy.

Why are my roast potatoes not crispy?

If the oven has not been fully preheated, then the potatoes will become quite soggy. Make sure the oven is hot enough! You may have also taken them out too soon. Oven temperatures vary.

What is the difference between baked and roasted potatoes?

When roasting potatoes, the temperature tends to be quite higher for that finished charred texture. For baked potatoes, the temperature of the oven is a bit lower.

How long does it take to roast potaoes?

Depending on the type of potatoes, the size, and how hot the oven is, it should take anywhere between 20-30 minutes. At lower temperatures, the potatoes will need about 40 minutes. You can par boil the potatoes so they cook or roast faster in the oven.

  1. I put at least 2 Tbsp of oil on my sheetpan and brushed it all the way across, so the potatoes wouldn’t stick. I also mixed the potatoes in the bowl with MORE oil, as instructed. The cheese stuck so hard to the pan that I couldn’t get any of it off. What a waste!
