Tips:

  • Use fresh potatoes: Fresh potatoes will give you the best flavor and texture.
  • Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking: This will help to remove excess starch and prevent them from sticking together.
  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven: This will give the potatoes plenty of room to cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the potatoes will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the potatoes over medium heat: This will help them to cook through without burning.
  • Stir the potatoes occasionally: This will help to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the skillet.
  • Season the potatoes to taste: You can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or any other desired seasoning.
  • Serve the potatoes hot: Ranch potatoes are best served hot out of the skillet.

Conclusion:

Ranch potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and they are packed with flavor. The ranch dressing adds a creamy and tangy flavor that perfectly complements the potatoes. Whether you are serving them at a casual gathering or a formal dinner, ranch potatoes are sure to be a hit.
