Roasted potatoes is a totally different anamule...involving peeling the
potatoes and quartering them. You can cook roasted potatoes in with a
roast or in a pan drizzled with oil and herbs (with a heavy hand). Where as
baked are done stand a lone and unpeeled, lightly rubbed with some oil or
shortening and possibly sprinkled with salt.
