Crispy Potato Wedges

Ingredients

3 Medium potatoes
Red pepper flakes - 1/2 tsp
Salt
Garlic minced 1/2 tsp
Olive oil 1tsp


Procedure

Wash the potatoes and cut them up (with peal) into long wedges. The thinner the wedges, the crispier they are when they come out of the oven. In a prep bowl, to the wedges add salt, red pepper flakes, olive oil, and minced garlic. Set aside for a few minutes and then spread them out on a baking sheet. To keep the wedges from sticking to the baking sheet, use a non stick aluminium foil wrap underneath. Preheat the oven at 350 and bake the wedges for about 15 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
