Cooking Tips
For perfectly roasted potatoes, ensure uniform slicing to promote even cooking. Don’t overcrowd the foil packets to allow proper air circulation. Experiment with different seasoning blends for a personalized touch—try adding garlic powder or paprika for extra flavour. For a crispy finish, open the foil packets during the last few minutes of cooking to let the potatoes brown slightly.
