Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- Begin by cutting each potato lengthwise into 8 wedges.
- Place the potato wedges in a large bowl of ice water, ensuring they are fully submerged.
- Cover the bowl and let it chill in the refrigerator for 45 minutes. This step helps to remove excess starch from the potatoes, resulting in crispier roast potatoes.
-
Preheat the Oven:
- While the potatoes are chilling, preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
-
Prepare the Potatoes:
- After 45 minutes, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
- Place the potato wedges in a 9-inch square baking dish, ensuring they are arranged in a single layer.
-
Prepare the Butter Mixture:
- In a small bowl, combine the butter, margarine, minced garlic, pepper, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Coat the Potatoes:
- Pour the butter mixture over the potatoes, ensuring each wedge is evenly coated. The cold potatoes will help the butter mixture to set, creating a deliciously crisp exterior during baking.
-
Bake:
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.
- Remember to spoon the melted butter mixture over the potatoes and turn them occasionally during baking to ensure even cooking and browning.
-
Serve and Enjoy!
- Once done, remove the roast potatoes from the oven and serve them hot as a delectable side dish or as part of your favorite meal.
These irresistible roast potatoes are guaranteed to be a hit with your family and friends! Whether served alongside a hearty roast dinner or enjoyed as a tasty snack, this recipe is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
