ROASTING POTATOES CONSIDERATIONS
There are a few different options for mini potatoes to use. Fingerling potatoes are great in this dish. They are the longer ones with thin skin/low starch content. They cook fast and crisp up well. But anything called baby potatoes are great.
The smaller the potato, the quicker the cooking time will be. Halving small potatoes makes the cook time even faster. Just be careful not to overcook end up with dried, hard potatoes
The sauce works on many potato recipes including fries and scalloped potatoes.
This dish works well for parties. Make a big batch of both the potatoes and the sauce. Place the sauce in a bowl and let people spoon it over their own serving of the potatoes.
