[...] Now we most definitely need potatoes. This next side comes from the delightful Aoife at The Daily Spud who I had the pleasure of meeting in person in Seattle at the IFBC. She is Irish and wonderful and makes the most amazing things out of potatoes including her Manly Spuds. [...]

Hi Christine & welcome! One tip for not having spuds stick to the pan in the oven is to make sure that they are dry before you put them on the pan. So, once you’ve washed the spuds and cut them into chunks, pat them with some kitchen paper to remove any excess moisture, then toss with any oil/seasonings and add to the pan. Also, make sure the oven is hot & fully preheated. It’s also recommended (though I don’t always remember to do so myself) to heat the pan before you add the spuds and also to heat the oil before you use it to toss the spuds. For more crispiness, you can also try steaming the chunks for a few minutes first, allow them to cool a little and then toss them in oil and into the pan.

Those manly potatoes look so good! How do you get them to be so crispy? Whenever I try to make potatoes in the oven, they end up sticking to the pan.

These look yummy!! My hubby would eat every last bite. It might be great with some meat for a Manly Spud Chili. :) Thanks for sharing!

Hey Allison, thanks for dropping in. You could certainly use chipotles in adobo sauce for this – hope you enjoy!

I really want to try this with the chipotles in adobo sauce. I think it would be great with the cumin and the vinegar. Great recipe, will definitely keep it in mind the next time I make potatoes.
