Directions

4. Add the potato wedges to the bowl and carefully toss them until they are fully coated with the mixture.
5. Spread the coated wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even baking.

Tips & Variations

• Ingredient Substitutions: You can use sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes for a slightly different taste. For a dairy-free version, try nutritional yeast in place of Parmesan.
• Optional Variations: Experiment with different herbs such as thyme or rosemary for added flavor, or spice things up with a pinch of cayenne pepper for some heat.
• Storage and Reheating Tips: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes to regain their crispiness.
