Questions about Diced potato

How do you get crispy diced potatoes in the oven?

Cut them into roughly 2 cm cubes, simmer for 5 minutes, then drain and let them steam-dry. Toss with a little oil, spread in one layer and roast at 200°C (180°C fan) for 30–40 minutes, turning halfway.

How long do diced potatoes take to boil?

For 1.5–2 cm pieces, simmer for about 10–12 minutes once the water has come to the boil. They’re ready when a fork goes in easily; drain promptly so they don’t break up.

Do you need to peel potatoes before dicing them?

No. Scrubbed, thin-skinned potatoes work well with the skin on, especially in salads, soups and stews. Peel floury potatoes if you want a softer, more even texture.

How should you store diced potatoes before cooking?

If you’ve cut them ahead, cover them with cold water in a covered container and keep them in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Drain and dry them well before roasting or frying.

What can you make with diced potatoes?

They’re handy in corned beef hash, soups, stews and curries. For potato salad, simmer the dice until just tender, then drain carefully so they keep their shape.

Can you use diced potatoes in a recipe that calls for whole potatoes?

Yes: use the same weight, but expect the smaller pieces to cook faster. Start checking them well before the recipe’s stated cooking time, particularly in soups and stews.
