Expert Tips

• Potato Varieties: Baby red or Yukon Gold potatoes work best for their creamy texture and quick cooking time.
• Crispier Texture: For extra crispy potatoes, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes before tossing them in the honey mustard mixture. Pat dry before coating.
• Make Ahead: Toss the potatoes in the sauce up to 2 hours ahead and store in the fridge until ready to roast.

FAQs

Can I use larger potatoes?
Yes, you can substitute with larger potatoes; just cut them into 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.

What if I don’t have Dijon mustard?
You can use yellow mustard, but the flavor will be slightly less tangy. Add a splash of apple cider vinegar for a similar effect.

Can these be made in an air fryer?
Absolutely! Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.

Storing & Reheating

• Storing: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Reheating: Reheat in a 375°F (190°C) oven for 10 minutes or in an air fryer for 5 minutes to restore crispiness.

Substitutions & Variations

• Sweet Potatoes: Substitute baby potatoes with sweet potatoes for a sweeter twist.
• Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red chili flakes for a hint of heat.
• Herbed Potatoes: Toss with fresh rosemary or thyme before roasting for an herby flavor.
