Ingredients

1 kg potatoes
2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon dried mixed herbs
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
pinch salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 220 degrees celsius (fan-forced).
Slice your potatoes in half and cut into even sized wedges. Place into a large bowl.
Place the olive oil, dried mixed herbs, sweet paprika and salt into a small bowl and mix to combine.
Pour the oil mixture over the potato wedges and use a spoon (or your hands) to mix to coat.
Place the wedges onto a large baking tray and place into your preheated oven.
After 30 minutes of cooking time, carefully remove the tray from the oven and use pair of tongs to flip the wedges over before returning to the oven for a further 15 - 20 minutes or until the wedges are golden and cooked through.
Remove the potato wedges carefully from the oven and serve.

Notes

You can use any type of potato for this recipe.
I leave the potato skin on, however you can remove it if you prefer.
The time it takes to cook your wedges may vary depending on the size. In this recipe, the wedges are no more than 5mm thick and approximately 5 - 6 cm long.
I purchased a crinkle cut knife from our local supermarket. You can also find them in homewares stores.
