Baked Potato Wedges( Garlic & Parmesan cheese)



Ingredients:

4 large sized Potatoes ( nicely washed and cut into wedges with skin) 
1/4 cup Olive Oil
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1tsp chilli powder 
1tsp dried oregano
1/2tsp garlic powder ( recipe in notes) 
1/2tsp onion powder ( recipe in notes) 
1/2 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt to taste
1/2tsp black pepper
Fresh parsley, finely chopped( can be substituted with dried parsley or pizza seasoning)

Procedure 

Preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius . Line the baking tray with parchment paper. Soak the potato wedges in cold water for 20 to 30 minutes. This will help in  removing the  excess starch and will enhance the crispiness.
Drain and spread the wedges on a clean kitchen towel. In a large bowl, take olive oil, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, chilli powder, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper, mix well. Add the potato wedges and toss them in the mix until they are coated evenly from all sides. 
Bake the seasoned potato wedges in the oven placing them skin side down on the baking sheet. Bake them for 30 to 40 minutes, flipping them half way through, until the potato wedges are golden and crispy.
Garnish with extra parmesan cheese and fresh parsley! 

Notes: 
Garlic powder and Onion powder:

Peel and wash garlic cloves, spread dry on a kitchen towel, microwave for 4-5 minutes, flipping it occasionally until they turn dry, let them cool and grind into a fine powder 
Peel and wash onions, cut into 4-5 pieces and spread dry on kitchen towel, put in microwave flipping occasionally until they turn dry, let them cool and grind into fine powder. 
This dehydrating process can be done in oven as well.
