Make Crispy Home Fries in the Oven

We just moved apartments and are still getting organized, so I’ve been going back to basics with my cooking lately while I get the kitchen in order.

This oven-baked home fries recipe is a long-time favourite comfort food, and an easy complement to any number of main dishess. 

To start with, peel (or minimally wash) a couple of yukon gold potatoes, and cut to 3/4″ cubes. Arrange the pieces on a tray lined with parchment paper and lightly toss with olive oil, salt, paprika and dried parsley. Throw on some cayenne pepper for extra bite. Space the cubes out nicely so they can cook evenly.

Bake in the oven at 180F for 20-25 minutes, tossing them every 5 minutes or so to let your home fries brown evenly and get nice and crispy (if your potatoes are not crispy by 20 minutes, leave them for another 5).

Just writing this post makes me want to go make another batch. Yumm!

Here’s the recipe!
