Steps //
- 01 Thaw the frozen potatoes in water until soft.
- 02 Squeeze the softened potatoes by hand to remove water, then peel them. Cooking tip The video shows the thawed potatoes being squeezed before peeling by hand.
- 03 Tear the peeled potatoes apart by hand and spread the pieces on a baking tray. Cooking tip Tearing leaves rough, irregular surfaces rather than smooth cut edges.
- 04 Brush oil over the potatoes, then sprinkle with salt, paprika and pepper. Cooking tip The captions suggest a seasoning you like, such as ramen seasoning, instead of paprika. No exact seasoning quantities are given.
- 05 Roast at 180°C. The description suggests 15 minutes for a softer result or 20 minutes for a crispier one. Cooking tip The description does not specify a preheating time or the type of appliance.
- 06 If the roasted pieces are large, cut them into bite-size pieces with kitchen scissors before serving.
