Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup avocado oil
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Cut each potato into wedges by first cutting in half lengthwise, then cut each half into quarters to create 8 wedges per potato.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato wedges and 2 tablespoons of avocado oil. Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the arrowroot powder, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, black pepper, and sea salt.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the potato wedges and toss to coat all the wedges evenly.
Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until they start to get crispy and golden brown.
Remove the baked potato wedges from the oven, and let them cool slightly while you heat the remaining 1/2 cup of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
When the oil is hot (approximately 350°F or 175°C), add the potato wedges in batches, frying them for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are crispy and achieve a deeper golden brown color.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the finished wedges to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the Whole30 Crispy Fried Potato Wedges immediately with your favorite Whole30 compliant dipping sauce or enjoy them as is.
