- 2 large russet potatoes rinsed
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 3 teaspoons garlic powder
- Salt to taste
- ⅔ cup finely grated parmesan cheese divided
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut potatoes into wedges (8 wedges per potato).
Place wedges in a bowl of water and soak for 10 minutes.
Drain and pat dry.
Toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, and half the parmesan cheese.
Arrange wedges on the baking sheet with one cut side touching the pan.
Bake for 30 minutes.
Flip wedges and bake another 25–30 minutes, until golden and crispy.
Sprinkle with remaining parmesan and salt to taste.
Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
-
Soaking the potatoes removes excess starch and helps them crisp up in the oven.
-
Make sure the wedges are not crowded on the pan or they will steam instead of roast.
-
Use freshly grated parmesan for the best flavor and texture.
