Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces Red Skinned Potatoes Offers a naturally sweet flavor and vibrant color.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Adds richness and helps achieve crispiness.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Gives a hint of savory goodness.
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika Introduces a subtle smokiness.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances the overall flavors.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper Adds a bit of spice.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and scrub the red-skinned potatoes thoroughly; remove any blemishes.
  3. Cut the potatoes into even wedges or sticks for uniform cooking.
Cooking
  1. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well coated.
  2. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Once done, remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Cut the potatoes into similar sizes for even cooking. For a spicy kick, toss with cayenne pepper before baking. These fries are gluten-free and can be made dairy-free by leaving out any butter.
