Notes

*You can use any variety of mini potatoes. We found some tri-color potatoes on sale, so we used those! We did not soak our potatoes, but cutting and soaking potatoes in cold water releases some of the starches and can make the potatoes crispier! Our potatoes were more like tiny bites of the perfect baked potato!

**We used olive oil, but you could also use vegetable or canola oil.
