Crispy Potato Wedges are thick-cut, oven-roasted potatoes with fluffy centers and perfectly seasoned golden edges. They’re easy to make, satisfyingly crunchy, and ideal for pairing with dips, burgers, or your favorite mains.

Ingredients

  • 4 medium Russet or Yukon gold potatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • Optional: 1 tsp dried herbs (rosemary, oregano, or thyme)
  • Optional: 2 tbsp grated Parmesan or 1/2 tsp chili flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Scrub potatoes and cut into 6–8 wedges each.
  3. Soak wedges in cold water for 30 minutes. Drain and dry thoroughly.
  4. In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, cornstarch, and any optional seasonings.
  5. Spread wedges in a single layer on the baking sheet without crowding.
  6. Roast for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy and golden.
  7. Let cool for a few minutes before serving to enhance crispiness.

Notes

  • Add Parmesan and fresh herbs in the last 10 minutes of baking for extra flavor.
  • Use Cajun seasoning or nutritional yeast for variations.
  • Make sure wedges are dry and spaced out to maximize crispiness.
  • Can be made in an air fryer at 400°F for 20–25 minutes.
