Ingredients
- 4 (900 g) Russet potatoes washed, peels, cut into wedges
- 2 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Pepper
Optional Variations
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon Lemon
- ½ teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
- Preheat Oven at 425°F/ 220°C/ Gas Mark 7
- Parboil potatoes Microwave - Place potato wedges in a large bowl (microwave-safe bowl). Heat in the microwave on high for 2 minutes. Toss them then cook 2 minutes more.Stovetop - Place potatoes in a pan of cold water and boil for approximately three minutes. They should be firm, not soft.
- Drain the potato wedges well on a paper towel – wipe excess moisture.Pro tip - drying potatoes will ensure they are crisp when baking. Excess moisture will cause them to stew.
- Season with oil, salt, black pepper, and any other optional seasonings such as paprika, garlic, rosemary, lemon, Italian seasoning). I used garlic powder and paprika today.
- Tray - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the potatoes on the parchment paper in a single layer. I prefer parchment paper but you can also use aluminum foil.
- Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes turning them around once in between until golden brown and crisp on the outside but still tender on the inside.Pro tip - turning them will ensure they crisp on both sides evenly.
- Serve hot with ketchup, mustard, mayo, mustard, ranch dressing. My favorite dipping sauce is a combination of ketchup, mayo, and mustard.
