Ingredients

  • 40 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 50 grams breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 3 potatoes, peeled and diced
  • Salt, to taste
  • Olive oil

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

2. Prepare the Coating

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, paprika, and black pepper.
  • Stir the mixture until evenly blended.

3. Season the Potatoes

  • Peel and dice the potatoes into uniform wedges or cubes for even cooking.
  • Place the potatoes in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat them thoroughly.
  • Add salt to taste and toss again to distribute evenly.

4. Coat the Potatoes

  • Dredge each potato wedge in the Parmesan and breadcrumb mixture.
  • Press gently to ensure the coating sticks to the potatoes.
  • Arrange the coated potatoes on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overlap.

5. Bake the Potatoes

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes.
  • Flip the potatoes halfway through baking for even crispiness.
  • Check for doneness by piercing with a fork; the inside should be tender, and the outside golden and crispy.

6. Serve and Enjoy

  • Remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes.
  • Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish to complement any meal.

Notes

  • Customize the Flavor: Add garlic powder or cayenne pepper to the breadcrumb mixture for extra spice.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Freshly grated Parmesan cheese delivers the best flavor and texture.
  • Ensure Even Coating: Toss the potatoes well in oil to help the breadcrumb mixture adhere better.
