Dusty Potatoes

Are you looking for a simple to prepare potato dish for dinner or your next potluck gathering? Good, because I have the perfect one right here! Dusty Potatoes! Simple ingredients, very little hands-on time, and they taste great...



A delicious dish with simple ingredients!

Let me share with you the most delicious potato side dish you will forever want to eat on a regular rotation! Made from simple ingredients, that are easy to prepare, and bake up deliciously. So are everyone I have served these to, loves them! Dusty Potatoes is also the perfect recipe to have family or even guests help with, and that way everyone can be in the kitchen, visiting and enjoying the time spent together.
 

Who doesn't love crispy potatoes and onions together?

There are tons of recipes that do not need a big wordy build-up, to convince you to give it a go in your own kitchen, and this is one of those. After all, who doesn't love crispy potatoes and onions baked together with a crispy coating? You have the choice of peeling the potatoes or leave them as nature grew them. Which is what we usually do. I have been a potato skin lover since I was a kid and mom made baked potatoes for dinner. My favorite part was the skin, which I usually saved for last...

Use the biggest pan you have, and let the crispy part happen!

You will want to use a very large flat baking pan for this recipe. Because you will want to spread the potatoes out over the surface of the pan, that is how they get crispy! If you need to double the recipe to feed everyone that is coming your way to share the meal, I suggest you use two pans and rotate them half way through the baking time. Dusty Potatoes literally go with everything, even eggs when you serve breakfast for dinner. Which as it turns out is another one of our family favorites!


Ingredients needed for this recipe:
  • Russet potatoes
  • onion
  • dry bread crumbs
  • olive oil 
  • garlic salt
  • fresh ground pepper

You will also need the following:
  • cutting board
  • paring knife
  • large mixing bowl
  • silicone spatula
  • jelly roll pan 10X15 inches
Now we are ready to begin!

adapted from: a potluck dish of potatoes we loved!
350-degree oven
UPDATE: 04.21.2023

4 average size russet potatoes
1 small mild onion
3 - 4 T olive oil
garlic salt to taste (don't be shy with the salt, potatoes need salt...)
fresh ground pepper to taste
1/3 - 1/2 c dry bread crumbs

Scrub the potatoes, then dry with toweling. 



Dice the potatoes into 3/4 inch pieces (peel if that is your preference!). 



Dice the onion into 3/4 inch dice.

Combine diced potatoes and onions in a large mixing bowl, season with garlic salt, and fresh ground pepper. 

Drizzle on olive oil (start with 3 T oil, use more if needed). Toss well.

Add the dry bread crumbs, toss again, and immediately spread out onto a prepared 10X15 baking pan.

Bake for 50 - 60 minutes or until soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside.

Storage options for Dusty Potatoes. Store in the leftover potatoes in the refrigerator in a tightly covered container. Reheat before serving. Reheated in the microwave they will not be crispy, but they will still be delicious!
