Easy Low Fat Oven Roasted Peppered Potato Wedges
By: French Tart
Nov 1, 2006
This is my Dad's recipe!!! Brilliant low fat & EASY roasted potato wedges with freshly ground black pepper and olive oil. I have also added garlic, lemon wedges, fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, cumin, chilli.......the list is endless! I have posted the basic recipe and it is obviously easy to add whatever you like, depending on the mood, season & type of meal you are serving. For example, rosemary is great with lamb dishes; thyme and oregano marries wonderfully with Italian & French cuisine; garlic and lemons are GREAT with roast chicken. The basic peppered recipe is still my favourite though - I use fleur de sel (local sea salt) in mine - but any coarse salt will be fine. I have given measurements for about 4 people......it is easily adapted up or down however!
SERVES 4
Ingredients
- 2 lbs roasting potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- fresh ground black pepper
- sea salt
Directions
1
Pre-heat oven to 220 C or 450°F.2
Wash and scrub your potatoes well - no need to peel them!3
Cut them into chunky wedges.4
Place in a ziplock bag or plastic container and add the olive oil & black pepper.5
Do NOT add the salt now as it encourages water!6
Shake the container or bag well - making sure every potato wedge has been covered in oil.7
Place peppered potatoes in a large and sturdy oven proof roasting tin - shake around to ensure they are in a single layer, more or less!8
Sprinkle on the sea salt and any herbs & spices you may be using.9
Give another good twist of ground black pepper over the potato wedges and roast in the oven for about 45 - 60 minutes or until crispy and brown!10
Sprinkle over any fresh herbs, if you are using them for a garnish or just serve "au natural" as a vegetable accompaniment.11
I often serve these in paper cornets for a light lunch or supper time snack with vinegar & sometimes, very naughty I KNOW, mayonnaise!

A+ French Tart and French Tart's Daddy! This method and recipe are fantastic! Crispy outside, fluffly and perfect inside. I made these as specified withholding the salt as instructed. Perfection! I also included fresh garlic and onion and served this with Garlic Lime Chicken Breasts. Would love to see how these come out on the grill! Thanks Tart!

Most excellent! I have been making potato wedges for a long time and had no idea that the salt was the culprit of sogginess. These fries produces a much better crispy outside and tender inside than and of my past attempts. Delicious!

Great recipe! We are eating low fat and this is a french fry loving family so I was very happy to find this recipe. I figured that they would need tossing and rotating while baking, don't do it! I did it too soon and lots of potatoes were a bit stuck to the pan, after I just left them alone to cook they baked up fine and were not all stuck to the pan. The roasting pan seems to be the key. Thanks!

Delicious. I make oven baked fries all the time but these were far superior to my usual process. The combination of high heat, pan selection and the light amount of oil yield a wonderful potato which is delightfully crispy on the exterior while still having a tender but toothy (not soft or mushy) interior. Mine were fully cooked at 40 minutes. Used a garlic infused olive oil and fresh with my potatoes and no other seasonings. Ate them with some sea salt and a drizzle of white balsamic vinegar. So simple but heavenly.
