Crispy Leaf Potatoes - the BEST roasted potatoes you'll ever make. Crazy delicious sliced potatoes that taste like potato chips. Make this for holidays or every day!
– 9 lbs. (4 kg) potatoes, peeled, yukon gold or russet
– 12 oz. (340 g) melted unsalted butter (3 sticks or 1 1/2 cups) or 11 oz. duck fat
– 3 teaspoons Maldon sea salt flakes (preferred) or salt
– 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
– 4 teaspoons chopped rosemary or oregano
Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl. Using your hands, toss with butter (or duck fat), 2 teaspoons salt, black pepper and about 2 teaspoons of chopped rosemary until fully coated.
Carefully place the potatoes upright, from left to right, in a baking tray (I used a 8x11" baking tray) until the tray is full. Do not pack in the potatoes too tightly, as this impacts the crispiness.
