Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 6–7 medium russet potatoes, cleaned and cut into fry-sized pieces
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1–2 tablespoons granulated garlic
- 1–2 teaspoons table salt or fine Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
Oil Ingredient:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Heat the oven to a high temperature of 450°F, creating an ideal environment for crispy potato wedges.
- Prepare a baking sheet by covering it with aluminum foil and applying a light coating of cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Combine potato wedges with olive oil, creating a glossy base for seasoning adhesion.
- Generously coat the potato wedges with grated Parmesan cheese, ensuring even distribution of the savory cheese.
- Sprinkle granulated garlic and salt over the potatoes, massaging the seasonings thoroughly to guarantee complete coverage.
- Fold in fresh parsley, adding a vibrant green touch and aromatic herb notes to the potato mixture.
- Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, avoiding overcrowding to promote optimal crispiness.
- Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes, allowing the initial crisping process to begin.
- Carefully rotate each potato wedge to ensure uniform browning and return to the oven.
- Continue baking for an additional 25-30 minutes, monitoring the color transformation to a golden, crisp exterior.
- Once achieved, remove the baking sheet and assess the fries’ crunchiness and color.
- Optional: Enhance flavor with a final sprinkle of salt to taste.
- Serve immediately while hot and enjoy the crisp, cheesy potato wedges.
Notes
- Crispy exterior guaranteed by high-temperature roasting and strategic flipping technique ensures perfectly golden and crunchy steak fries.
- Parmesan cheese adds rich, savory depth while granulated garlic provides intense flavor throughout each potato wedge.
- Choose sturdy potato varieties like Russet or Idaho for best structural integrity and maximum crispiness during baking.
- Evenly coating potato pieces with oil and seasonings before spreading on baking sheet prevents clumping and promotes uniform browning.
- Single-layer arrangement on baking sheet is crucial for achieving maximum crispness and preventing soggy, steamed potato results.
- Serve immediately after baking to maintain optimal temperature and textural crunch, as these fries lose their crispy appeal when cooled.
