Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Peel and cut the potatoes into ½-inch thick strips. (10 minutes)

03

Step
15 mins

Place the cut potatoes in a bowl filled with cold water and soak for 15 minutes. This helps remove excess starch for extra crispiness. (15 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Remove the potatoes from the water and pat them completely dry with paper towels. The drier the potatoes, the crispier they will become. (5 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

In a bowl, whisk together the white wine, olive oil, thyme, garlic granules, salt, and pepper. Add the dried potatoes to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. (5 minutes)

06

Step
3 mins

Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not touching. This allows them to roast evenly. (3 minutes)

07

Step
15 mins

Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then flip the potatoes and continue roasting, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 15-20 minutes more. (35 minutes)

For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a sprig of fresh rosemary to the potatoes before roasting.
Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. If necessary, use two baking sheets to ensure the potatoes roast properly.
These potatoes are delicious served with aioli, a garlic mayonnaise, or your favorite dipping sauce.

    Parboiling the potatoes first really helped with the crispiness.

  • Millie Tillman

    Soaking the potatoes in cold water made a noticeable difference in crispiness. Thanks for the tip!

  • Geo Hickle

    The wine adds a subtle but delicious flavor. I'll never make roasted potatoes the same way again.
