    Potato wedges, one of the best side dishes I've ever tried! They are tender on the inside but crisp on the outside, as well as flavorful and absolutely delicious. Only 7 ingredients and 30 minutes required, they are super easy to prepare!

    You can serve them with plenty of different recipes, but I usually eat them with some seitan or tempeh to add some vegan protein to my healthy carbs. I hope you enjoy!

    How to make potato wedges - Step by step

    Step-by-step photos of how to make potato wedges
    • Preheat the oven to 400ºF or 200ºC.
    • Wash and cut the potatoes into chunky wedges (photo 1).
    • Add the potato wedges (photo 2) and all the remaining ingredients to a large mixing bowl (photo 3) and mix until well combined (photo 4).
    • Transfer to a lined baking sheet (photo 5) and bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until they are golden brown, crisp on the outside, and tender on the inside (photo 6).
    • Serve your potato wedges immediately.

    Ingredients and tips

    • Potatoes: any type of potatoes will do, but waxy potatoes are ideal, like Yukon Gold, Russets, or red potatoes.
    • Extra virgin olive oil: I’m Spanish, so I use extra virgin olive oil to cook most of my dishes. However, any type of oil is also a good choice. I always use extra virgin oils when possible because they’re healthier. If you don’t consume oil, just use some vegetable stock or water instead.
    • Garlic powder: you can also use minced garlic if you want, but I find garlic powder more convenient.
    • Dried oregano: any type of dried or fresh herb will do. Fresh herbs get burnt easily, so it’s better to add them later once the potatoes are cooked.
    • Paprika: any other spice will do, feel free to add your favorite ones.
    • Salt: I used iodized salt, but any type of salt will work well.
    • Ground black pepper: fresh ground black pepper tastes amazing. However, I find the store-bought one more convenient and also easier to measure with a teaspoon.
    • Feel free to serve your potato wedges with our healthy ketchup, vegan mayo, vegan yogurt sauce, vegan ranch dressing, or even vegan Parmesan cheese.

      Hi guys!
      Awesome recipe, as always.
      May I make a suggestion, that I think you'll love it? Into the mixing bowl, add some flour or cornstarch to coat the potatoes before you put them into the oven. They will become super crispy and amazing.
      Cheers!
