# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • One sheet pan means minimal cleanup, which honestly might be the real reason I make this weekly.
  • The vegetables actually taste like themselves, just better—sweet, nutty, with crispy edges that you'll find yourself stealing off the pan.
  • Works as a side dish or toss it over rice or grains for a complete meal that feels substantial without being heavy.
02 -
  • Don't wash your potatoes after cutting them—the surface starch helps create that crispy, almost-fried texture you're after.
  • If your oven runs cool, the vegetables might need those extra five minutes; look for deep golden color as your signal, not just the clock.
03 -
  • Pat your cut vegetables dry with a paper towel before tossing with oil—excess moisture steams them instead of roasting them.
  • Don't skip the halfway stir; those forgotten vegetables in the oven corners will char while others pale, but a quick toss guarantees even caramelization.
