Ingredients :
- 8 medium potatoes in the skin
- 3 tbsp (45 ml) sunflower oil
- black pepper to taste
- ½ tsp (2,5 ml) salt
- 1 tsp (5 ml) dried thyme or rosemary
- 6-8 cloves of garlic, peeled
Instructions :
1. Preheat oven to 180 °C.
2. Cut potatoes into wedges and place in a bowl.
3. Mix the rest of the ingredients and pour over the potatoes. Mix well to coat the potatoes with the oil.
4. Place in a single layer on an oven tray. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Cook's note :
1. This recipe works well with sweet potatoes and butternut, or a combination of these.
2. The potatoes can be boiled or microwaved until almost tender and then cut into wedges. Then they will bake for 20 minutes.
3. Spicy potatoes: Replace the herbs with 2 tsp paprika, curry powder or turmeric.
