Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and dry them. Cut each potato into wedges by first cutting them in half lengthwise, then into quarters, and finally into eighths.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, ground cumin, ground paprika, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed to create the spice blend.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them thoroughly to coat them evenly with the spice mixture.
Spread the seasoned wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking tray, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow even cooking.
Bake the wedges in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Remove the wedges from the oven and let them cool slightly. If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish before serving.
Serve the Moroccan Seasoned Wedges warm as a side dish or snack. Enjoy!
