I don't usually use a recipe. I cut the potatoes into fairly small pieces,
toss with olive oil or olive oil and a mixture of butter and some
seasonings. Italian seasonings work well. You can add parmesan cheese if
you like. I find that a coating of sweet Hungarian paprika on the outside
really helps to crisp them. I also usually add a ton of onion cut in
smallish chunks. I also add salt and pepper. Recently saw a similar recipe
that used shallots.

I usually cook at 350 but the key is to turn them over at least once while
baking. I let them bake for at least an hour.
