Tips!
- These potatoes are savory and delicious! They have a beautiful golden crisp to the outside and a perfectly cooked inside. The fresh parsley and parmesan cheese is optional, but adds a great balance and freshness to the dish.
- I prefer not to peel the potatoes, especially if they have thin skins, as they get nice and crispy. If you prefer, you can peel them.
- Cut the potatoes into similar sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
- Shake the basket halfway through cooking so that the potatoes crisp up all over.
