Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Cut potatoes into small wedges and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt, chili powder (or pepper), paprika, and potato starch if using. You could do this step in a bowl and mix it all there. Toss well to coat and spread in one even layer on the tray.
- Bake for 10 minutes, remove the tray from the oven and springle the garlic. Put back in the oven and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes until fries are crispy and golden brown.
- Toss with fresh parsley, adding additional salt and pepper to taste, if needed. Serve immediately with condiments of choice.

Notes
- Vegan Parmesan: Garlic parmesan fries are an incredibly popular non-vegan option. However, they can easily be veganized with nutritional yeast and/or a dairy-free parmesan cheese substitute.
- Garlic truffle potato wedges: I know, I know truffle doesn’t exactly scream ‘budget.’ However, grocery stores can run special offers on truffle flavored olive oil. This also works well with nutritional yeast.
- Dried herbs: To boost the flavor of the baked potato wedges, use a sprinkle of rosemary, thyme, oregano, or Italian seasoning. Looking for ways to keep your herbs fresh? Check out this guide!
- Chimichurri: This recipe was actually inspired by a trip to Argentina and some particularly delicious garlic fries doused in chimichurri, so that’s a big thumbs up from us.
- Seasoning blends: Pre-made blends are also great. i.e., Cajun or taco seasoning.
- Vegan nacho fries: Season the homemade potato wedges with taco seasoning, then top them (once cooked) with vegan ground ‘beef,’ salsa, avocado, vegan sour cream, and fresh herbs (cilantro or scallions). Corn or beans are also great additions.
- Vegan cheese: Add a generous sprinkling of your favorite melty vegan cheese, then broil until melted. Alternatively, sprinkle over some vegan feta.
