  • 3 cloves garlic, minced Aromatic and pungent

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning Fragrant blend of herbs
  • to taste salt and pepper Essential seasonings
Finishing Touch
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Nutty and salty, melts beautifully
  • to taste fresh parsley, chopped For garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and scrub the russet potatoes under running water, then cut them into wedges, each about an inch thick.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add the potato wedges to the bowl, tossing until evenly coated.
  5. Spread the coated potato wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, turning the wedges halfway through.
  2. In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the wedges.
Serving
  1. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.

Notes

Ensure the potato wedges are spread out in a single layer for crispiness. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning the cheese. You can prepare wedges in advance and store them in the fridge prior to baking.
