Start with red potatoes, preferably pre-washed ones like Tasteful Selections.

Cut the potatoes into very small pieces for faster cooking.

Place the cut potatoes in a plastic container.

Add a couple tablespoons of canola oil to the container with the potatoes.

Stir the potatoes to coat them well with the oil.

Sprinkle about a teaspoon and a half of salt over the potatoes and stir again to mix well.

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Spread the potatoes on a baking tray.

Roast the potatoes in the oven for about 25-30 minutes until they are light golden brown and crispy on the outside.

Remove the potatoes from the oven and check for doneness; they should be crispy and caramelized.
