Instructions

Tap a step number to check it off as you cook.

  • 425°F

Preheat your oven to 425°F. Place a large baking sheet in the oven while it preheats — this helps the potatoes start crisping immediately when they hit the pan.

Uses

  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Yukon Gold Potato

Wash and dry the 2 lb papas Yukon Gold o russet well. Cut them into uniform 1-inch chunks so they cook evenly. There's no need to peel them — the skin crisps up beautifully.

Uses

  • Yukon Gold Potato

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato chunks with 3 tbsp aceite de oliva, 4 cloves ajo, 1 tsp polvo de ajo, 1 tsp romero, ½ tsp pimentón (if using), 1 tsp sal kosher, and ½ tsp pimienta negra. Toss thoroughly until every piece is well coated.

Uses

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Yukon Gold Potato

Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer, cut-side down where possible. Make sure they are not crowded — use two pans if needed. Crowding causes steaming instead of roasting.

Uses

  • Baking Sheet
  • Oven
  • Yukon Gold Potato
  • 25 min

Roast for 25 minutes without disturbing them. This allows a golden crust to form on the bottom.

  • 15–20 min

Flip the potatoes with a spatula and roast for another 15–20 minutes, until deeply golden and crispy on the outside and fork-tender in the center.

Uses

  • Spatula
  • Yukon Gold Potato

Remove from the oven and taste for seasoning. Add a pinch more 1 tsp sal kosher if needed. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh chopped perejil fresco picado. Serve immediately for maximum crispiness.
