Crispy Twice Cooked New Potatoes With Garlic Aioli Food

CRISPIEST EVER POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Drain the potatoes and set the strainer over the top of the pan for a few minutes so the outsides of the potatoes can dry.

Roast until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on both sides, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter with a metal spatula. Serve while hot.
