Paprika Potato Wedges
Description
Paprika Potato Wedges combines large potato wedges coated in olive oil and a blend of paprika, granulated garlic, salt, and black pepper. The preparation involves cutting washed potatoes into wedges (keeping the skin on for texture and nutrients, if preferred), then shaking them in a sealed bag with the seasonings to evenly coat. Baking at a high temperature ensures the wedges develop a crisp, golden exterior and a soft interior.
This recipe uses basic spices to give a subtle smoky and garlicky taste, making these wedges suitable as a side for many main courses or as a snack served with your preferred sauce.
The straightforward approach in this method ensures even roasting without complicated steps; simply bake until the potatoes reach the desired crispness, which usually takes about 35 minutes. Serving immediately after baking is recommended for the best texture.
Ingredients
- 4 potato large
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (extra virgin)
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon granulated garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Wash the potatoes with cold water, pat them dry with kitchen towel, then cut them into wedges. You can peel the skin off, if you wish, but I prefer it on.
- Place the wedges in a re-sealable plastic bag together with all the other ingredients.
- Seal the bag and give it a good shake, so that they wedges get coated nicely.
- Preheat the oven to 220 degrees C (430 Fahrenheit).
- Place the wedges onto a roasting tray and bake for 35 minutes or until crisp and golden-brown.
- Serve with the sauce of your choice.
