French fries are popular for a reason—they're crispy, greasy, savory and addicting. Consider these roasted potatoes as French fries' sophisticated older brother. They have the same salty, crispy, addictive goodness, but with added layers of flavor and less guilt. Serve them alongside any roasted or grilled meat. Chilled leftovers also make an amazing addition to any classic salad!
