FAQs

Q: Can I use a different type of potato? A: Yes, you can use other types of potatoes like red potatoes or Russet potatoes. However, Yukon Gold potatoes are preferred for their creamy texture and ability to hold their shape.

Q: How do I store leftover roasted potatoes? A: Allow the potatoes to cool completely, then store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in a hot oven or air fryer at 400°F (200°C) to regain their crispiness.
