• Ready In: 42mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 4 russet potatoes
• 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
• 6 cups water
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

directions

1. Drop cubed russet potatoes into boiling water that contains ½ teaspoon of baking soda. Boil for only one minute, then drain and add back to the hot pan.
2. Cook for about 30 seconds in the pan to develop the starch on the outside of the potatoes (this will get you that amazing crunch factor you're looking for).
3. Add butter and salt (to taste) to the pan, and when melted, pour potatoes on a hot sheet pan and add a bit of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (2tbs is suggested you may add more or less).
4. Roast at a whopping 500 degrees for 30 minutes. Done.
