SEASONED BAKED POTATO WEDGES
Recipe video above. Crunchy wedges seasoned so they taste like the wedges you can get from the freezer section at the supermarket! I found that the trick to make crunchy wedges is to use the right amount of oil. Too much results in soggy wedges and the seasoning comes off!

Steps:
- For the taters: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Thoroughly wash the skins of the potatoes. Cut each in half lengthwise, then slice the halves into 2 to 3 wedges each.
- Place the wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle in the olive oil and sprinkle in the rosemary, salt, black pepper and granulated garlic. Toss until the potatoes are thoroughly coated.
- Spread the potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet, being sure to leave space in between the wedges. Bake in the middle of the oven until almost tender, about 25 minutes. Flip the wedges over and bake until the edges are crispy and turning brown, about 10 minutes more.
- For the dipping sauce: Meanwhile, place the mayonnaise, sour cream, dill, parsley, mustard, pepper and salt in a food processor. Pulse until the fresh herbs are chopped and the ingredients are combined, about 30 seconds. Pour into a small bowl and serve alongside the warm potato wedges.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 220°C or 200°C if fan forced.
- If using baby potatoes, wash and dry them and then cut into quarters. If using larger potatoes cut into rouughly 1 inch pieces.
- I like to place the potatoes into a large plastic bag, or you can add them to a large mixing bowl. The plastic bag is the easiest and least messy option.
- Add in the remaining ingredients and ensure thoroughly mixed.
- Pour the potatoes out onto a flat tray in a single layer. I like to use cookies sheets. You dont need to grease the trays as the potatoes are already coated.
- Place in the oven and turn after 20 minutes. Cook until done to your liking. Mine usually take 40 to 50 minutes.
Tips:
- Choosing the Right Potatoes: Opt for firm, medium-sized potatoes like Russets, Yukon Gold, or Red Potatoes. These varieties hold their shape well and provide a fluffy interior with a crispy skin.
- Properly Washing and Drying: Before slicing, thoroughly wash the potatoes to remove dirt and bacteria. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to ensure a crispy exterior.
- Seasoning for Flavor: Use a combination of herbs, spices, and seasonings to enhance the flavor of your baked potatoes. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. You can also add fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, or oregano for an extra layer of flavor.
- Olive Oil for Crispiness: Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil before baking. This helps create a crispy exterior and prevents them from drying out.
- Baking at High Temperatures: Bake the potatoes at a high temperature, usually around 400°F (200°C), for a shorter duration. This results in a crispy outer layer and a soft, fluffy interior.
- Flipping for Even Browning: To ensure even browning and crispiness, flip the potatoes halfway through the baking time.
- Serving Suggestions: Baked potatoes can be enjoyed on their own or served with a variety of toppings like butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon, chives, or salsa. They can also be stuffed with your favorite fillings for a hearty meal.
