Crispy paprika potato wedges
2 May 2026 07:15 amBasically I was hungry one day and tried to dupe the ones from the frozen section at the supermarket. I'm pretty sure this was ALSO inspired by a Nadia Lim recipe but I'm not 100% sure... It's definitely vibes-based when I make it lol.
Ingredients
- Potatoes (however many you have, peel off any green bits/chop off eyes/etc., I usually make these when I have random potatoes hanging around that need using up)
- Smoked paprika (about 1-2 tsp per tray of potatoes, or to taste)
- Garlic powder (about 1/2-1 tsp per tray of potatoes, or to taste)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cornflour (about 3 Tbsp per tray of potatoes)
- Neutral oil (about 3 Tbsp per tray of potatoes)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180-200 C fan bake, depending on how hot your oven runs.
- Chop the potatoes into thick chips, then lay out on a baking tray in one layer with no double ups to ensure they crisp up nicely.
- Sprinkle over the cornflour, then spices, then oil, and toss with hands or spoons.
- Spread the wedges out again into one layer.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then remove from the oven and toss before baking for another 10-30 minutes depending on the size of the wedges and heat of your oven. They're done when they're golden and crispy, a few might have a bit of bubbling on the top.
