  • Dry the potatoes well before seasoning for maximum crispiness.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan melts and browns better than pre-shredded cheese.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet.
  • Roast at a high temperature for the crispiest texture.
  • Flip the potatoes during the last 10 minutes if you want extra crispy edges.

Storage

Allow leftovers to cool completely.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Reheating

For the best texture:

  • Oven: Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10–12 minutes.
  • Air Fryer: Heat at 375°F (190°C) for 5–6 minutes.
  • Microwave: Works well but the potatoes won't be as crispy.

Frequently Asked Questions
