It's marvellous. I add mushroom and onion with a little bit salt. The taste is great and perfect as a side dish of my steak.

I've been roasting potatoes this way for years. Didn't know they were considered 'English' though. I also make my own Italian Dressing and marinate the potatoes a few minutes and then roast so I guess mine could be considered 'English-Italian', huh? This recipe is fine as is though and is so adaptable to tweaking. Thanks for this one.

Can't even fathom anybody criticizing this recipe - it's as basic as a "pure potato" recipe can get, and that's not a bad thing. EVOO, salt & pepper shaken up in a zip-lock w/ the potatoes - wonderful! Just as good w/ the addition of paprika and garlic. But really, this recipe is the potato equivalent of the grilled cheese - Simple. Good. Yum. Season to your heart's content, but at the core of this recipe is a moist hunk of potato. Repeat. Yum.

Simple and delicious, and healthy. I'll be making these again and again. For what it's worth, I was preparing another dish with this (Crispy Coconut Chicken Fingers) and thus needed the oven @ 450. I placed these on the lower rack and followed the above instructions otherwise...including cook times. They came out great and were not overdone.

This is nice for "on the fly." Definitely don't use too much oil and I added garlic salt, which added a nice flavor. I sliced them fairly thin and cooked about 15 minutes, turning over half way through.

They turned out dry and tasteless. My husband did not like them, and he NEVER tells me that!

I've made these several times but have not taken the time to review. They are in the toaster oven and Im having a glass of wine so I thought I'd do it now. We love these. I'm serving them tonight with East Carolina BBQ's,roasted veggies and salad. I just drizzle XXX Virgin Olive Oil on them after I've cut them(like fries, but not too thin)& put them in a produce bag I've saved from the store. Saves washing an oily bowl and recycles the bag. I use these for lots of things and even get an extra one every now and then. I use Celtic Sea Salt and pepper and they turn out great. I do bake them in our toaster oven (just 2 of us) at close to 400. Thanks much for the recipe. Much healthier than crappy old frozen fries with all their additives. Occasionally I sprinkle garlic or parmesan, but tonight they're mostly naked with S & P. 10/6/09 making these again tonight with garlic powder and parmesan to go along with the cream cheese jalapeno popper burgers from this site. third time i've made the burgers in a week. i used ground turkey and seasoned the meat and the cream cheese mixture, also added a little shredded cheddar tonite to the filling. these are great!!!
