Chef's Pro-Tips

  • Parboil or Soak for Crispiness: Parboil potato cuts in salted water with a splash of vinegar or soak in cold water to wash away surface starches before roasting.
  • Preheat the Baking Sheet: Place your baking tray in the oven while it preheats. Dropping seasoned potatoes onto a sizzling pan starts caramelization instantly.

  • 1 box mini phyllo shells, 15 count, baked

Frequently Asked Questions

Fill the phyllo shells up to a day ahead and refrigerate, but add the marshmallow fluff and broil just before serving so the shells stay crisp.

The broiler works fine. Broil for about 1 minute until the fluff is golden brown, watching closely because it goes from toasted to burnt fast.

Yes. The recipe calls for 1 cup of cooked mashed sweet potato puree; just make sure it is smooth and not watery before whisking in the maple syrup and spice.

Fill them as close to serving as possible. The moist filling softens the delicate shells the longer they sit.
