Ingredients for Crispy salt and pepper potatoes
2 large egg whites
450 g new potatoes, about 2.5 cm in diameter
10 ml kosher salt
5 ml finely ground black pepper
5 ml finely chopped rosemary
5 ml finely chopped thyme
5 ml finely chopped parsley
How to make Crispy salt and pepper potatoes
Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan) and line a rimmed baking tray with baking parchment.
In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites until foamy, ensuring there are no liquid whites remaining.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until they are well coated with the egg whites.
Transfer the coated potatoes to a strainer or colander to drain off any excess egg whites.
Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and herbs.
Scatter the potatoes on the prepared baking tray, ensuring they are not touching.
Roast in the oven for 15–20 minutes, or until the potatoes are very crispy and tender when pierced with a knife.
Transfer the roasted potatoes to a bowl and serve immediately.
