FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Can I replace the breadcrumbs?
Yes, you can use cornmeal or semolina for a different crunch. However, breadcrumbs contribute to a more uniform crust.
Can they be prepared in advance and then cooked?
Yes, you can prepare the seasoned cubes and store them in the fridge for a few hours. Cook them at the moment to get maximum crispiness.
Can I skip using paprika?
Yes, paprika is used to flavor and color the potatoes, but you can omit it or replace it with turmeric, pepper, or a spice that better suits your taste.
