Notes:
a) EXTRA crispy potatoes - I use olive oil for it's flavour,
but it starts to smoke at a higher temperature than 390f/200c. If you want to
sacrifice the flavour, consider using vegetable/sunflower oil and roasting at
425f/220c for a little extra crispiness.
b) Parsley - Try not to think of this as just garnish, it
adds a burst of fresh flavour to the potatoes.
c) Space them out - Make sure you don't cram them together
on the tray, otherwise they will simply steam instead of roast. Use two trays
if needed. Either way make sure the tray is definitely piping hot and the
potatoes and placed face down.
d) Calories - Based on divided between 4 people with 1 tbsp
of parsley to garnish.
