Reminiscent of salt and vinegar chips, these oven roasted potatoes are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and coasted in a syrupy malt vinegar sauce. So easy to make and a crazy delicious dinner side dish!
We also love these home fries that are made with crispy potatoes and tart apples! Itโs a great side dish that pairs well with chicken, steak, and pork!

How to Roast Potatoes
It’s so easy to make crispy roasted potatoes. Here’s a brief rundown of the steps.
(Scroll below to the printable recipe card for details and measurements.)
- Soak potatoes in cold water for a bit. Drain and pat dry.
- Toss potatoes with oil on a baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Season with a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
- Roast, tossing a few times, until golden and crisp.
- Make the malt vinegar sauce on the stovetop then drizzle over the potatoes or serve on the side.
Tips for Making the Best Roasted Potatoes
- Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Too small and theyโll burn.
- Cut the potatoes into uniform pieces. Making sure theyโll all the same size, allows them to cook the same.
- Soaking the potato cubes in cold water for at least 30 minutes removes excess starch, which prevents the potatoes from sticking together and helps achieve maximum crispness.
- Place them onto the baking sheet in a single layer. Vegetables release moisture as they cook and if theyโre piled on top of one another they will steam and not roast.
- What temperature to roast potatoes? Roast at 425 degrees F. High heat is best!
- Toss halfway through cooking. This allows the potatoes to roast evenly and brown on all sides.
- How long to roast potatoes? Roast until the potatoes are tender and crisp, about 30-35 minutes.
Proper Storage
- To store leftovers: These potatoes are best enjoyed hot right from the oven, but any leftovers can be stored up to 3 days in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator.
- To reheat: Reheat roasted potatoes in the oven at 425 degrees F until warmed through. Or in a fry pan on the stovetop over medium-low heat until warmed through. You can also reheat in the microwave for 45-60 seconds, although not our preference, since they tend to steam instead of maintaining some crispness.

We are having this tonight
The first time I tasted vinegar on potatoes was at the Oregon State Fair back in the 60’s. It was so good, but haven’t thought about it for years. Now I’ll have to find some malt vinegar and try this.
I wonder if Whole Foods has malt vinegar. We just got TONS and TONS of potatoes in our CSA, and this is definitely how I’ll be using them.
I love potatoes. I love malt vinegar. I love fish & chips. I tweaked this a bit by making our usual potato wedges and making the sauce for dipping. Loved it.
I’m so excited about these malt vinegar roasted potatoes! trying this!
I had red potatoes on hand so that’s what I used. These were delish and a fun change from the usual. Many thanks!
SO delicious! Salt and vinegar potato chips are my fav, so I knew I would love these!
Potato is my favorite vegetable and I love roasted potatoes. First time trying them vinegar sauce though and they were GREAT.
Confession time: Back in the old days, I used to eat at Long John Silver’s and I would pour the malt vinegar all over my fries. I was ahead of my game…I just thought I was extra weird. If I had only known that it would be cool someday. haha I’m doing this with my next roasted potato adventure.
