Ingredients
- Potatoes: 4 medium-sized
- Eggs: 2 large
- Salt: 1 teaspoon
- Pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
- Paprika: 1/2 teaspoon (optional, for added flavor)
- Garlic Powder: 1/2 teaspoon (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare the Potatoes
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Keeping the skin on enhances texture and adds nutrients. Cut the potatoes into evenly-sized wedges for consistent cooking.
3. Prepare the Egg Coating
In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well combined. Add the salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder, mixing well.
4. Coat the Potatoes
Place the potato wedges in the bowl with the egg mixture. Toss until the wedges are evenly coated.
5. Bake
Arrange the coated potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway through to promote even browning. The wedges are done when they are golden brown and crispy.
6. Serve
Remove the potato wedges from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.
