Notes

To keep home fries crisp, spread vegetables in a single layer and use enough oil to coat them all. Stirring every 15 minutes during roasting helps prevent sticking and ensures even browning. These make a great make-ahead side—store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days, and reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore crispness. Try using different sweet potato types or swap in squash for variety. Serve with eggs, tofu scramble, salsa, or hot sauce for a balanced brunch or breakfast bowl.
