Ingredients
    For the Potatoes
  • 3 large potatoes peeled and cut into wedges
  • 3 tbsp melted butter unsalted
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
    • For Garnish
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley finely chopped
  • 0.5 tbsp grated parmesan optional, halal-certified
Instructions
    Preparing the Potatoes
  1. 1
    Peel the potatoes and slice them into evenly sized wedges or thick slices. This ensures even cooking and consistent crispiness. Rinse the potatoes under cold water to wash off excess starch, then pat them completely dry with a clean towel.
    2. Making the Garlic Butter Seasoning
  2. 2
    In a bowl, combine melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, oregano, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the garlic and herbs are evenly distributed in the butter mixture.
    3. Coating the Potatoes
  3. 3
    Add the dried potato wedges into a large mixing bowl. Pour the garlic butter mixture over the potatoes and toss well until each piece is coated from all sides. Make sure the garlic distributes evenly so every bite is flavorful.
    4. Arranging on the Baking Tray
  4. 4
    Line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Spread the potatoes across the tray in a single layer, leaving space between each piece. This prevents steaming and increases crispiness.
    5. Baking Until Crispy
  5. 5
    Place the tray into a preheated oven at 220°C. Bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure all sides become golden and crispy. The potatoes should be crisp on the outside with a tender, buttery inside.
    6. Resting and Garnishing
  6. 6
    Remove from the oven and let the potatoes rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley and optional halal-certified parmesan on top before serving.
Note

For extra crispiness, soak potato wedges in cold water for 20 minutes, then dry thoroughly.

  • Adjust garlic amount depending on preference.
  • You can replace butter with ghee for a richer flavor.
  • Yukon gold or russet potatoes produce the best crispiness.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in an air fryer or oven for best texture.
  • Add chili flakes or cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
  • For a cheesy version, sprinkle grated parmesan during the last 10 minutes of baking.
