The method
Step by step

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
About 5 min
- 2
In a large mixing bowl, add the potato cubes and drizzle with vegetable oil.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Ensure the bowl is large enough to allow for easy tossing without spilling.
- 3
Toss the potatoes until they are all lightly and evenly coated in oil.
About 1 min
- 4
Sprinkle the dry onion soup mix over the potatoes and toss again until the seasoning is well distributed.
About 1 min
- 5
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
About 2 min
Cook’s note: Do not overcrowd the pan; use two if necessary. This helps the potatoes roast and become crispy rather than steam.

About 40 min

Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
