Steps:
- 1. wash and slice each potato, (or if you wish you can cut into wedges, peel them if you prefer.) place in mixing bowl
- 2. in a small bowl combine oil and all seasonings and whisk until blended. pour over the potatoes and toss until all are coated.
- 3. place in 9x13 inch pan and bake for approx 40 minutes, or tender. This will depend on the type of potable and also the thickness of the cut.
Tips:
- Pick the right potatoes: For the best results, choose small to medium-sized potatoes that are firm and have a thin skin. Avoid potatoes that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: To ensure that the potatoes cook evenly, cut them into uniform sizes. This will help them roast evenly and prevent some pieces from being overcooked while others are still undercooked.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the potatoes, make sure to spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet. Overcrowding the pan will prevent the potatoes from getting crispy and may result in steamed potatoes instead of roasted ones.
- Season well: Don't be afraid to season the potatoes generously with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. The Cajun seasoning will add a flavorful kick, while the salt and pepper will help to enhance the natural flavor of the potatoes.
- Roast until golden brown: Keep an eye on the potatoes as they roast and remove them from the oven once they are golden brown and crispy. Over-roasting will result in dry and chewy potatoes.
Conclusion:
Roasted Cajun potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. By following these tips, you can create perfectly roasted potatoes that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Serve them hot and enjoy the explosion of flavors in every bite!
