These shingled sheet-pan taters are somewhere between french fries and potato chips (and heaven). The key to achieving the remarkably crispy-meets-creamy texture is to use russets. Their natural starch and low moisture content make them ideal for roasting at high temperatures. To get them crisp and golden, they’ll need a little TLC: Use a big bowl when you’re tossing them with the oil and then really get in there with your hands to make sure every slice is well coated.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 servings

Ingredients

2 1/2 lb. russet potatoes (about 4), scrubbed, very thinly sliced
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
4 large eggs
8 oz. hot-smoked fish (such as salmon, whitefish, or trout)
1/2 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
Trout or salmon roe, chopped dill, and thinly sliced red onion (for serving)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place a rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Toss potatoes in a large bowl with 1/4 cup oil (using a bowl will help get the slices well coated, which means they’ll get super crisp in the oven). Season generously with salt.

    Step 2

    Transfer potatoes to a rimmed baking sheet and spread out into an even layer (it’s fine to have them piled on top of each other; just keep them even). Roast, undisturbed, until browned and very crisp (top and bottom), 40–50 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.

    Step 3

    Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Crack eggs into pan and fry, spooning oil over whites, until set, about 3 minutes.

    Step 4

    Divide potatoes among plates and top each with an egg, some smoked fish, and crème fraîche. Spoon roe over and scatter some dill and onion on top.
