In order to make this recipe you do not any special skills. You only need to preheat your oven, peel potatoes and cut them into small pieces. Next add oil, seasoning and Parmesan cheese and roast potatoes for about 30 minutes until golden and crispy.
TIPS:
- If you can, but Parmesan in one pieces and grate it at home. Pre-grated Parmesan does not melt the same way as it has additives like cellulose or calcium sulfate etc. These additives are supposed to prevent shredded cheese from clumping. This in turn may affect the final texture and taste of your dish.
- Make sure you cut potatoes in similar sizes. It will help potatoes to roast evenly.
- Do not forget to peel potatoes. This step is important, if you leave skin on potatoes will not crisp up.
