Ingredient Notes:
Baby Potatoes: I used baby potatoes for this crispy potatoes recipe but you can really use any baking potato, just cut bigger potatoes in bite-size pieces. Greek Yogurt: Make sure to use Greek yogurt for the sauce. Not only is it added protein, but it has a thicker consistency that makes the dip less watery than a regular plain yogurt would. If you’re vegan, substitute the yogurt for your fav vegan sour cream or yogurt substitute. Baking Soda: Baking soda may seem like a weird ingredient for crispy potatoes but it actually breaks down the pectin in the potato and draws starch to the surface. With this, you’ll get wonderful browning and crispiness.
How to make crispy potatoes:
How do you make potatoes crispy? The secret ingredient is baking soda. It helps break down the pectin in the potato and draws starch to the surface which assists in the crispiness. Do I have to boil my potatoes first? If you want to achieve the crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside consistency, boiling your potatoes before baking them will help. I don’t like dill: You can definitely substitute the dill for another herb like parsley, but naturally, you’ll get a different flavor. Storage: These are best enjoyed when made fresh.
