Variations

No! There is no need to peel these potatoes. This cooking method makes the most of the skin and by the end you will be rewarded with crispy garlic parmesan potatoes.How to make it in advance
You can make this in advance but the potatoes will not remain crispy. You can make it in advance and store in the fridge for up to 3 hours. Don't add the Chives and Parmesan! Allow the Potatoes to come to room temperature. You can then crisp the potatoes again in the pan by reheating oil and butter in a seperate pan and adding the potatoes once the fat is very hot. Saute for 6 - 10 minutes before serving. Add the Parmesan and Chives after this stage. Alternatively If you have leftover boiled potatoes in the fridge, cut them in half and proceed as per the recipe but cook for 3-4 minutes.How to Serve
These Potatoes are best eaten within an hour after cooking, because they will lose crispness over time. If you don't mind that, this salad keeps well up to 5 days in the fridge in an airtight container. Make Ahead instructions are above. Serve with a side of Sour Cream.Other methods to cook the Potatoes
To Oven Roast - Cut in half. Boil for 5 - 6 minutes. Heat Oil in tray for 10 mins at 200 c/gm6. Drain and then roast potatoes for 25 - 40 minutes. Then continue with the recipe. To Microwave - Place Potatoes in a deep dish and cover with 1 cup water. Cover and microwave on high for 8 - 11 minutes. To Air Fry - Air fry potatoes at 200c for 20 - 25 minutes before continuing with the recipe.
