Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 4 Potatoes

Seasoning & Butter

  • 2 1/2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 1 tablespoon Dried Parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried Basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
  • Salt to taste
  • Ground Black Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius) to prepare for baking the potato wedges.
  2. Prepare potatoes: Wash the 4 potatoes thoroughly, then cut each into evenly sized wedges, ensuring uniform cooking.
  3. Brown the butter: In a pan over medium heat, add 2 1/2 tablespoons of unsalted butter and warm it until it turns slightly brown, which adds a rich nutty flavor.
  4. Cook potato wedges with herbs: Add the potato wedges to the pan with browned butter. Season with 1 tablespoon dried parsley, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, salt, and ground black pepper to taste. Sauté for about 5 minutes to infuse the herbs and spices into the potatoes.
  5. Bake the wedges: Transfer the potato wedges to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and golden brown on the edges.
  6. Serve: Remove from oven, serve the baked potato wedges warm, and enjoy the crispy exterior with flavorful herb-infused butter.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, soak potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking to remove excess starch.
  • Use fresh herbs if available to enhance the flavor profile.
  • Adjust seasoning according to your taste preferences.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce such as ketchup, sour cream, or aioli.
  • Ensure even wedge size for consistent cooking results.
