Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C).
  2. Peel 2-3 large russet potatoes and cut them into 6 to 8 large pieces. Place in cold water.
  3. Fill a large pot with water, season with kosher salt, and bring to a boil. Add potato pieces and boil for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Drain potatoes and shake gently in the pot for about 30 seconds to roughen the edges.
  5. Spread duck fat on a baking sheet and heat in the oven for 5-10 minutes until hot.
  6. Carefully add the roughened potato pieces to the hot baking sheet in a single layer, and sprinkle generously with kosher salt.
  7. Roast the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, flipping every 10-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Check for tenderness by piercing with a knife. If tender, they are done; otherwise, roast a few more minutes.
  9. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.
