Ingredients: oven-baked potatoes

  • Potatoes :)
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 2 teaspoons herbes de Provence (dried thyme, rosemary, oregano…)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • A pinch of 4 spices mix (4 different varieties of pepper)
  • Salt and pepper

Cooking instructions: oven-baked potatoes

1. Preheat oven to 390°F (200°c).
2. Clean the potatoes carefully with running water; you don’t have to peel them because the skin plays a big role in the final taste! Cut potatoes in quarters.
3. In an airtight container (or a freezer bag), put the potatoes, oil, and spices. Now the fun begins: shake to mix well, then set aside.
4. Arrange the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (or a good silicon baking mat, just like this one). Bake for about 40 minutes, checking and turning potato wedges from time to time.
