How to Roast Potatoes
The first thing you’ll do is preheat your oven to 400 degrees. This is the perfect temperature for the petite red skin potatoes. Spray a baking tray with avocado oil baking spray and set it aside. Next, be sure to rinse the potatoes and sliced them in half. You want the pieces to be about one inch in size. Puncture small potatoes before baking to allow the steam to escape.
Next, toss the prepared red skin potatoes with the avocado oil, white wine vinegar, salt and pepper. Place them on a baking tray, cut side down. This will help the center to get extra crispy. Bake for 25-30 minutes, making sure to occasionally toss them. This way they will not get too brown on any one side.
Once brown and tender, remove them from the oven. Toss the roasted potatoes with apple cider vinegar. Place them in a serving bowl and top them with finishing salt. Maldon flaky salt is best.
Option to use russet potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes for this recipe. Honestly, any potato will work well if they are cut into evenly sized pieces. I prefer to leave the skin on when roasting potatoes, but you can remove it if you like.
- For tender potatoes, bake at 350°F for 45-50 minutes
- For slightly crispy potatoes, bake at 375°F for 35-40 minutes
- For crispy potatoes, bake at 400°F for 25-30 minutes
- For very crispy potatoes, bake at 425°F for 20-25 minutes
Types of Vinegar
For this recipe, use a combination of white wine vinegar and apple cider vinegar. Be sure to bake the potatoes in the white wine vinegar because it has a slightly stronger flavor than the apple cider vinegar. Then, you’ll finish the dish with the apple cider vinegar.
That said, you can use apple cider vinegar for this entire recipe if you do not have white wine vinegar handy. Alternatively, you can finish the dish with malt vinegar vs. apple cider vinegar if you desire. It’s totally up to you.
Storage
Store any leftover potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for three to four days. Reheat in the microwave. This recipe makes about four light servings. Please see the nutritional information below. Looking for more side dish recipes?
