Crispy Oven Potato Wedges
Cut potatoes into similarly sized wedges. Dry the cut surfaces thoroughly, then coat lightly with oil and seasonings.
What you need
- Potatoes
- Oil
- Paprika
- Salt
Put it into practice
Arrange cut-side down with space between pieces. Roast at 425°F, turning once, until the centers are tender and edges are browned.
The detail that makes a difference
A parchment-lined pan simplifies cleanup, but the wedges still need room. Add delicate herbs after cooking so they do not scorch.
Make it work in your kitchen
Start with a small batch and taste as you go. Keep a note of the ingredients and proportions you prefer so you can repeat the result. For substitutions, consider texture and cooking time as well as flavor; a softer ingredient often needs less time than a firm one.
