Ingredients

  • 4 large Russet potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Ground paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground coriander
  • 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and dry them. Cut each potato into wedges by first cutting them in half lengthwise, then into quarters, and finally into eighths.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, ground cumin, ground paprika, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed to create the spice blend.

Step 4

Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them thoroughly to coat them evenly with the spice mixture.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking tray, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow even cooking.

Step 6

Bake the wedges in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Step 7

Remove the wedges from the oven and let them cool slightly. If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish before serving.

Step 8

Serve the Moroccan Seasoned Wedges warm as a side dish or snack. Enjoy!
