Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
Seasonings:
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
Liquid/Oil:
- 4 tablespoons (60 ml) olive oil
Instructions
- Crafting crispy, herb-infused potato wedges that burst with garlic and Parmesan flavors requires precise technique and careful preparation.
- Thoroughly cleanse Russet potatoes under cool running water, meticulously patting them dry with clean kitchen towels.
- Skillfully slice each potato lengthwise into symmetrical halves, then subdivide each half into wedge-shaped segments measuring approximately 1-inch thick.
- Transfer potato wedges into a spacious mixing vessel, generously drizzling olive oil across the surface while gently tumbling to ensure uniform coating.
- Blend salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning in a separate receptacle, then liberally dust the mixture over potato wedges, carefully massaging the spices into every crevice.
- Generously sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese, tenderly rotating the wedges to achieve complete and even coverage.
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment paper or lightly coating with culinary spray, ensuring minimal sticking.
- Meticulously arrange potato wedges across the sheet, positioning skin-side downward to promote optimal crispiness.
- Slide the prepared sheet into a preheated 400°F oven, allowing wedges to roast for 25-35 minutes, rotating midway to guarantee uniform golden-brown coloration.
- Once achieving a perfect crisp exterior and tender interior, extract the wedges from the oven with precision.
- Elegantly transfer the aromatic wedges onto a serving platter, garnishing with finely chopped parsley to enhance visual appeal and provide a fresh herbal note.
- Present immediately alongside complementary dipping sauces, inviting guests to savor these delectable potato delights.
Notes
- Experiment with different potato varieties like Yukon Gold or sweet potatoes for unique flavor profiles and textures.
- Ensure potatoes are completely dry before seasoning to achieve maximum crispiness and prevent soggy edges.
- For gluten-free option, verify Parmesan cheese is certified gluten-free and replace Italian seasoning with individual herbs like oregano, thyme, and basil.
- Reduce baking time by 5-10 minutes for softer wedges or increase temperature to 425°F for extra crispy exterior.
