01
Step 1
Peel the potatoes and cut them into your favorite shapes—wedges, cubes, or sticks—trying to keep the pieces about the same size so they cook evenly.
02
Step 2
Put the potatoes in a big pot with water and a teaspoon of salt. Bring it to a boil and cook for about 12 minutes, until they’re mostly cooked but still a bit firm.
03
Step 3
Drain the potatoes and let them cool completely. This helps get rid of extra moisture so they crisp up better later.
04
Step 4
Once cooled, toss the potatoes in a large bowl with some oil to coat them lightly.
05
Step 5
Sprinkle on oregano, pepper, chili flakes, salt, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, and chopped coriander, then toss everything together until the potatoes are nicely coated.
06
Step 6
Grease a baking pan and spread the potatoes out in a single layer without overlapping. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes, until they turn golden and crispy.
07
Step 7
Let them cool a little before serving, and enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce or mayo!
