Potatoes are one of the most versatile and most popular foods to serve as a side dish with dinner. Many potato recipes require you to cut the potatoes into cubes or small, even squares. Whether you want to boil, bake, roast the potatoes or make an oven dish with potatoes, dicing them will cook them evenly and quickly. It takes a little patience to dice potatoes, but it's actually quite easy to do as long as you have a nice sharp knife to work with. When you have cut the potatoes into cubes, you can prepare tasty baked or roasted potatoes that go with any main dish.

Ingredients

Baked potato cubes

  • 1 kilo waxy potatoes, cut into cubes
  • 4 to 6 tablespoons (60 to 90 ml) of olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped
  • Pepper and salt to taste
  • 3 tablespoons (10 grams) of chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Roasted potato cubes with rosemary

  • 1.5 kilos waxy potatoes, cut into cubes
  • 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • 60 ml olive oil
  • 5 cloves of garlic, chopped into pieces
  • Pepper and salt to taste

To step

Method 1 of 3: Dice the potatoes

  1. Preheat the oven. To make sure the oven is hot enough to roast the potatoes, it is important to preheat it. Set the oven to a temperature of 220 ° C and let it heat up completely.
  2. Serve the potatoes while they are still warm. When the potatoes are done, take the pan out of the oven. Place the potato cubes in a serving bowl or bowl and serve as a side dish while still warm.
    • The roasted potatoes are an ideal side dish with roasted chicken, pork tenderloin or your favorite steak.

Tips

  • It is easier to dice the potatoes if you use a sharp knife.
  • Dicing potatoes takes more time than slicing them randomly to make mashed potatoes or other boiled potato dishes. However, the potatoes will cook faster and more evenly if you cut them into small cubes of the same size.

Warnings

  • Always take the time to dice potatoes. You can easily cut your fingers when working with a sharp knife.
