These Parmesan-roasted potatoes are crispy on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside. I have tried a lot of good roasted potato recipes, but I keep coming back to this one.

Cook’s Note

It's important you get as much of the Parmesan mixture as possible onto the cut side of the potatoes. As I place the potatoes into the baking pan, I press the cut sides directly into the Parmesan mixture that sticks to the sides and bottom of the bowl, distributing it as evenly as possible among the potatoes.
