Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make crispy cheese potato rounds without an oven?
Yes! You can achieve a crisp layer by transferring the slow-cooked potato rounds to an air fryer at 400 degrees F for 4 minutes, or by crisping them in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
Which potato variety works best for crispy cheese potato rounds?
Russet potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes are ideal. Russets offer a fluffy texture and hold up well, while Yukon Golds bring a rich, buttery flavor to the dish.
Can I prep these potato rounds the night before?
Absolutly. You can wash, slice, and submerge the raw potato rounds in cold water in the refrigerator overnight to prevent browning. Drain and dry them thoroughly before seasoning and cooking.
