Instructions:

- Wash and dry the potato thoroughly.

6. Check for Doneness:
- The potatoes are done when they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. You can test them by poking with a fork; they should be easily pierced.
7. Serve:
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the potatoes cool for a couple of minutes.
- Serve your delicious roast potatoes hot as a side dish or enjoy them as a snack.
