Crispy Potato Bites

Honni's Note:

I thought of this the other week when I was tired of the same old potato dishes. Similar to what my mum used to make. My DH has requested twice since.

• Total Time: 40 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 3

• 4 medium potatoes
• 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/3 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
• 1/4 cup butter (melted)
• 10 ml olive oil
• salt & pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 220c.
2. Dice potatoes into bite size pieces (approx 1 inch).
3. Pour olive oil& melted butter into ovenproof dish.
4. Toss diced potatoes in oil& butter.
5. Season to taste.
6. Sprinkle cheese& breadcrumbs over potatoes.
7. Toss mixture til potatoes are covered in cheese& bread crumbs.
8. Cook in oven for approx 30 mins (til golden& crispy) turning once half way thru.
9. Secrets to success, make sure oven is hot& adding the olive oil stops the butter from burning.

Thanks for posting this great recipe. To make it even easier I put the potatoes into a plastic bag & then added the other ingredients and mixed them together. Keeps hands clean :) I then put them into the dish. What I liked was that I could prepare them earlier in the afternoon, meaning more time for relaxing with friends :) Had them with grilled sausages to which I added a can of savoury diced tomatoes after they were cooked and then just heated them through, with a green salad on the side. My friends enjoyed this easy Sunday evening meal.

Very, very yummy. Best potatoes I've ever had. I also tried this with eggplant it and came out great. Much easier than dipping in egg and frying.
