Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 4 large russet potatoes, peeled and sliced thinly (about 1/4 inch thick)

Seasoning Mix

  • 1 packet Lipton onion soup mix (about 1 oz)
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
  • 1/4 cup water or vegetable broth

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or olive oil, for drizzling
  • Optional fresh herbs (parsley or chives), chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Peel and slice the russet potatoes into thin, even rounds or wedges, approximately 1/4 inch thick, to ensure even cooking and flavor absorption.
  2. Mix the Seasoning: In a large bowl, combine the Lipton onion soup mix with melted butter and water or broth to create a rich, savory mixture that will coat the potatoes.
  3. Coat the Potatoes: Toss the sliced potatoes in the seasoning mixture, making sure each piece is fully coated with the flavorful blend.
  4. Arrange and Bake: Spread the coated potatoes evenly in a greased baking dish or sheet. Drizzle with vegetable or olive oil. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 45 minutes, or until potatoes are golden brown and tender.
  5. Serve Warm: Remove from the oven, garnish with freshly chopped parsley or chives if desired, and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Use even, uniform slices to ensure consistent cooking.
  • Do not skip the oil drizzle; it helps crisp the edges nicely.
  • Let potatoes rest a few minutes after baking to let flavors settle.
  • Customize seasoning by adding extra spices or herbs to your preference.
  • Russet potatoes are preferred for fluffiness, but Yukon Gold can be used for a creamier texture.
