Ingredients
Scale
Potato Wedges
- 4 medium potatoes
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 3/4 tsp paprika powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
For Serving
- Ketchup
- Vegan ranch mayo dip
- Sriracha mayo
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it is hot enough to crisp up the potato wedges nicely.
- Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Cut each potato into evenly sized wedges for consistent cooking.
- Season the Wedges: In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with vegetable oil, paprika powder, onion powder, garlic powder (if using), salt, and black pepper. Coat them evenly with the seasoning mixture.
- Arrange for Roasting: Spread the seasoned wedges out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased tray to prevent sticking.
- Roast the Potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 35 minutes, turning the wedges halfway through the cooking time to achieve even browning and crispiness.
- Serve: Once golden and crispy, remove the wedges from the oven. Serve hot with your choice of ketchup, vegan ranch mayo, or sriracha mayo for dipping.
Notes
- Cut potatoes into similar-sized wedges to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Adjust the seasoning to taste; add more paprika for a smokier flavor or additional garlic powder if desired.
- If you like extra crispy wedges, broil them for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- These wedges are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven but can be reheated in an oven or air fryer to retain crispiness.
- For a healthier option, substitute vegetable oil with olive oil.
