Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 4 cups frozen waffle-cut potatoes
Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Season the potatoes: Place the frozen waffle-cut potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle seasoned salt evenly over them.
- Toss to coat: Gently toss the potatoes so they become evenly coated with olive oil and seasoning, ensuring all pieces are lightly glossy and well seasoned.
- Arrange on the baking sheet: Spread the coated potatoes in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid stacking or crowding to allow for crisping.
- Bake the first side: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15 minutes to begin crisping and browning the potatoes.
- Flip the potatoes: Carefully remove the pan from the oven and use a flat spatula to flip each waffle potato, allowing the second side to brown evenly.
- Finish baking: Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until the edges are deeply golden, firm, and crispy.
- Serve hot: Remove from the oven and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces for a delicious snack or side dish.
Notes
- Ensure potatoes are spread out in a single layer to achieve maximum crispiness.
- Seasoned salt adds a nice flavor; you can substitute with regular salt and additional spices if preferred.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and simplify cleanup.
- Serve with ketchup, ranch, or your favorite dipping sauces for extra flavor.
- For extra crispness, let the potatoes cool on a wire rack after baking.
