Ingredients

  • 4 medium (approx. 800g) potatoes (I like Maris Piper or King Edward)
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
  • 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0.25 tsp ground cumin
  • 0.5 tsp fine sea salt
  • 0.5 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 5 g (0.2 oz) fresh thyme leaves picked, or 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary leaves chopped, or 0.5 tsp dried rosemary
  • 15 g (0.5 oz) fresh parsley finely chopped, or 1 tsp dried parsley (see Notes)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Slice the potatoes into wedges (no need to peel them) and place them in a large bowl.   Pour over the oil and melted butter.   Add the garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, thyme and rosemary.   Toss together to combine.
  • Transfer the wedges to a large, non-stick baking tray. Spread them out in a single layer and cook in the oven for 30 minutes, turning once halfway through, until golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven, sprinkle on the fresh parsley, transfer to a serving bowl…and enjoy!

Notes

  • If using dried parsley, add it during step 1 along with the other herbs, then no need to garnish with fresh parsley at the end.
  • Flavour variations:
    • Cheesy - add grated parmesan or cheddar 5 minutes before they're done.
    • Spicy - add chilli flakes, cayenne or Cajun seasoning to the garlic butter.
    • Lemon and herb - add lemon zest and juice to the garlic butter.
  • This herby garlic butter potato wedges recipe can easily be adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
