Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 4 large Russet Potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive Oil (natural)
- 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano (natural)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder (natural)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice (natural)
- 1 tablespoon Vegetarian Worcestershire Sauce (natural)
- Salt to taste (Sea Salt, natural)
- Black Pepper to taste (natural)
- 1/2 cup Plant-Based Cheese (plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Heat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, then cut into wedge shapes of similar size to ensure even cooking.
- Season the Potatoes: In a large bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, dried oregano, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Toss the potato wedges in this mixture until fully coated.
- Arrange for Baking: Place the wedges on a parchment-lined baking tray in a single layer, ensuring some space between each wedge for crisping on all sides.
- Bake Until Crispy: Bake for 35-40 minutes, turning the wedges halfway through, until golden and crispy on the outside but tender inside.
- Add Plant-Based Cheese: Five minutes before baking is complete, sprinkle the wedges with plant-based cheese, then return to the oven until melted and slightly browned.
- Finish with Fresh Herbs: Remove wedges from the oven and sprinkle with fresh thyme or additional oregano for an aromatic finish. Serve hot for best taste and texture.
Notes
- Dry potatoes thoroughly before seasoning to maximize crispiness.
- Arrange wedges in a single layer to allow hot air circulation and even crisping.
- Flip wedges halfway through baking for golden color on both sides.
- Use high oven temperature to develop a crisp crust without drying the interior.
- Add fresh herbs after baking to preserve their bright, fresh flavor.
