Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure a perfect crispy finish.
  2. Wash and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes, keeping them uniform for even cooking.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, tossing to ensure every piece is evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they aren’t overcrowded for better crisping.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
  3. Optionally, sprinkle fresh herbs over the potatoes just before serving.

Notes

Cut potatoes evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate. Don’t skip the preheating; it’s crucial for achieving that crispy texture. Experiment with spices for added flavor variations.
