Wonderful flavor and texture. Couldn't be easier to make. I left the skin on and enjoyed them seasoned as directed with a spicy entree. They browned and turned crusty just as promised.

These are delicious! I make them all the time at home. Try adding some paprika, greek seasonings or black pepper. Change or add different seasonings to your taste

These were excellent even though when slicing them I didn't realize I had the thin blade in. But just shortened the roasting time to 15 min. No flipping. I used the Yukon Gold potatoes. Thank you for sharing a great recipe!
