Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes cut into wedges
- sea salt
- black pepper
Instructions
Oven Baking Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. If you have a convection oven with a fan, then use it! Set it to 400℉ with the fan on for maximum crunch and browning.
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut into wedges. For smaller potatoes, I usually cut them once lengthwise, then cut each half twice, so I end up with 6 pieces per potato. For larger potatoes, you should be able to get 8 wedges per potato.3 pounds Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes
- Line the potatoes up on a non-stick baking tray, skins down. If your potatoes are falling over and a cut side will be on the tray, then line the tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
- Sprinkle salt and pepper (and any other seasonings you wish) on the potatoes liberally.sea salt, black pepper
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked all the way through when poked with a fork.
