Ingredients

Scale

Potato Roast Ingredients

  • 4 medium starchy potatoes (such as Russets), peeled and cut into chunks
  • 6 slices smoked turkey bacon, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into evenly sized chunks to ensure uniform roasting. Soak the potatoes in cold water for about 20 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps achieve a crispy exterior.
  2. Cook Smoked Turkey Bacon: While the potatoes soak, chop the smoked turkey bacon into bite-sized pieces. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy and golden. Set the cooked bacon aside and reserve some of the oil for the potatoes.
  3. Season and Toss: Drain and thoroughly pat dry the potatoes to remove moisture. In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), smoked paprika, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and pepper. Add the crispy smoked turkey bacon last to maintain its texture.
  4. Roast to Perfection: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the seasoned potato mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 35-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown, crispy on the outside, and tender inside.
  5. Serve Warm: Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes to allow flavors to settle. Garnish with optional fresh herbs or smoked paprika and serve immediately for the best texture and taste.

Notes

  • Dry potatoes thoroughly before roasting to ensure crispiness.
  • Roast at high heat (425°F/220°C) to develop a crispy crust quickly.
  • Flip potatoes halfway through roasting for even browning and crunch.
  • Add cooked bacon after tossing other ingredients to keep it crispy.
  • Use starchy potatoes like Russets for a fluffy interior.
