# Steps to Cook:
01 -
Set your oven to 400°F to prepare for roasting the potatoes evenly with a crispy finish.

Bake for 35-40 minutes until the potatoes are tender and golden, stirring halfway to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.

Once melted, garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot with optional sour cream dollop for extra creaminess.
