I'M a widower and cook mainly for myself. This recipe is simple and I've used it many times. Since it makes enough for two, I'll wrap half of the baked potato wedges in foil and freeze them for another time. Then I simply warm them in the toaster oven or microwave. -R. V. Taibbi, Honolulu, Hawaii

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use a waxy potato variety such as Yukon Gold, Red Potatoes, or New Potatoes. These varieties hold their shape well and won't become too soft when roasted.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: Cutting the potatoes into even wedges will help them cook evenly. Aim for wedges that are about 1-inch thick.
  • Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: Before roasting, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will help them crisp up and develop flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the potatoes, make sure to spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet. Overcrowding the pan will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: Roasting the potatoes at a high temperature will help them get crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Aim for a temperature of 425°F (220°C).
  • Watch the potatoes closely: The cooking time for potato wedges can vary depending on the size of the wedges and the type of potato used. Keep an eye on the potatoes and remove them from the oven when they are tender and golden brown.

Conclusion:

Herbed potato wedges are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They're easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. With the right ingredients and a little bit of care, you can create perfect potato wedges that will be a hit with your family and friends.
