Perfectly golden and crisp potatoes are very achievable. Roasting your potatoes at a high temp and making sure your potatoes are cut side down are the magic tricks. It takes an extra minute to arrange all of them but the results are very much well worth it. Be sure to not overcrowd your pan and roast in batches if necessary!
