They look unseasoned and could be cut a little smaller, but are cooked well… the good news is that those are way easier to fix
All you really need for tasty roasted potatoes is salt, which you wouldn’t be able to see. Paired with some garlic mayo ideally.
They don’t look great but they definitely look like roasted potatoes… I don’t see what the problem is here
Cool… So now I’ve seen two pictures of roasted potatoes. Still not sure what the issue is here. Just because they’re not seasoned to your liking doesn’t mean it’s not roasted potatoes lol
Would you like this whole half of a potato I have baked seasoned only with vegetable oil? No? Why don’t you like my roasted potatoes?!
You’re right. Technically one would call this roasted potatoes.
Quite an achievement, yeah?
Edit: the downvotes is peak comedy for me. Gotta love it.
UK Roasties look exactly like the one posted first. They tend to be made by par boiling potatoes and then roasted in some oil or a fat. Not shitty food porn. It’s how they’re traditionally done.

They honestly dont look that bad. They just need some more fat and maybe some herbs.
Presentation could be improved but they look like alright roasted potatoes to me
After you’ve par-boiled them, drain them and put them back into the empty pan with the lid on. Take outside (helps if it’s cold!) and lift the lid for a couple of seconds so that steam escapes. This makes the outside of the spuds go fluffy, and it’ll crisp up nicely in the oven.
You can also put some around the meat (if you’re roasting some) and let them absorb the delicious grease.
(Also you’ll need more than that)
