Ingredients

  • 4 medium russet potatoes about 1 1/2 pounds, 680 grams
  • 3 tablespoons (44 milliliters) olive oil
  • 1 ounce (28 grams) Parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Garnish:

  • Freshly chopped parsley
  • Grated Parmesan cheese
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Slice a potato lengthwise to create two halves. Cut each half into 4 slices to create 8 wedges in all. Repeat with remaining potatoes.
  • Place the potato wedges in a large bowl and cover in cold water. Soak for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400˚F (200˚C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment or grease with oil.
  • Drain the potato wedges and pat to dry thoroughly.
  • Dry the large bowl and add the potato wedges.
  • Drizzle the olive oil over the potato wedges and toss to coat.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the parmesan, salt, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, and black pepper. Add to the potatoes and toss again to evenly coat.
  • Arrange the potato wedges, cut side down, in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven, flipping halfway, until the potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown, about 25-30 minutes.
  • Serve immediately topped with parsley, Parmesan, and black pepper.

To cook in the air fryer:

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400˚F (200˚C). Lightly grease the basket with oil.
  • Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer in the preheated basket (cook in two batches to prevent overcrowding).
  • Cook until crisp and golden, gently shaking the basket once or twice, about 10-12 minutes.
  • Serve immediately topped with parsley, Parmesan, and black pepper.
