Ingredients
Spices & Seasonings
- 1.5 tsp Salt or to taste
- 2 tsp Chili Powder red
- 1 tsp Cumin Seeds roasted cumin seeds for a deeper flavor
- 1 tsp Pepper freshly ground, black, preferred
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
Finishing Touches

Instructions
Prepare the Potatoes
- Wash, peel, and cut the potatoes into even-sized wedges. Aim for approximately 1-inch thick wedges for even cooking.
Marinate the Wedges
- In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, salt, red chili powder, cumin seeds, black pepper, and garlic powder. Ensure all wedges are evenly coated. Let the potatoes marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for maximum flavor).
Roast the Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Arrange the marinated potato wedges in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Baking and Finishing
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through. During the last 5 minutes of cooking, drizzle with lemon juice.
Garnish and Serve
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with oregano flakes. Serve immediately while hot.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Potato Wedges
- For extra crispy wedges, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 15-20 minutes before marinating to remove excess starch.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. Ensure the potato wedges are in a single layer for even browning and crisping. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
- For a smoky flavor, try roasting the potatoes on a grill pan instead of a baking sheet.
- Experiment with other herbs and spices! Rosemary, thyme, or paprika would be delicious additions.
