# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The way the potatoes get impossibly crispy while the beans stay bright and tender feels like you mastered restaurant cooking without trying
  • Everything roasts on one sheet, meaning less cleanup and more time with the people you actually want to hang out with
02 -
  • Crowding the baking sheet is the quickest way to end up with steamed vegetables instead of roasted ones, so give them room
  • The potatoes need a head start or you'll end up with undercooked spuds and overcooked beans
03 -
  • Don't cut the potatoes too small or they'll dry out before they get crispy
  • Room temperature vegetables roast more evenly than cold ones straight from the fridge
