Description

Ingredients

• 900 g/2 pounds baking potatoes
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (or canola/vegetable oil)
• ½ tablespoon mix of dried herbs such as oregano, parsley, thyme, garlic powder*, optional
• 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
• ¼ teaspoon salt, preferable coarse
• ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 1-2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley leaves, optional

Directions

• Preheat oven to 450F/230C.
• Peel potatoes and cut them into ½-inch/1cm matchsticks or wedges. If you prefer a different thickness, that’s fine—you can make them thicker or thinner, but cut them as similarly as possible so that they cook evenly.
• Place potatoes in a large bowl and fill with warm water. Let them sit for at least 10 minutes, then drain well and pat with paper towels until completely dry.
• Once dry, place potatoes in a large bowl. Add oil, dried herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper, and toss to combine. Arrange on a pan lined with parchment paper, making sure to keep potatoes separate and not overcrowded. Bake on the bottom rack (the lowest position of the oven) for 30-40 minutes, until browned, flipping the potatoes using a spatula or tongs halfway through for even baking.
• Toss with fresh parsley and additional salt and pepper if desired.
