Easy great potatoes



Back again finally after a long xmas break to talk about potatoes. In fact I really like roast potatoes but I often have the feeling I cannot prepare them at the best even if it takes ages. I then started a different approach, a slices approach. Here you see it.
I also like this approach because it offers several good variations. The potatoes can be prepared plane in a classic version just with salt. Or you can add some herbs like rosemary or a Provence mix for soft touch. Or you can add also a hot spices mix, like for Greek or Mexican food, for a more tasty result.
For this recipe it is pretty useful an oil nebulizer to distribute the oil more uniform, but if you do not have one just pour gently a small amount of oil maybe with the help of a spoon.

About 2 potatoes per person
Olive oil
Salt, pepper
Spices mix (eg Greek mix or Provence herbs) 
 


Heat up the oven at 250°C. Peel the potatoes and slice them in a thickness of 1-2mm.
Fold a tray with baking paper and spread a spoon of oil on it. Place the potatoes slices on the tray without overlapping them too much. 


Sprinkle the spices and the salt. Finish with a final small amount of oil. 

Place in the hot oven and bake at 220°C for a proximately 30min or until ready.
