🥔🧄 Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges

- Toss potato wedges until fully coated
3. Bake
- Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F)

🔥 Pro tips for extra crispiness
- Soak potato wedges in cold water for 20–30 minutes before baking (removes starch)
- Dry them completely before seasoning
- Use high heat and space them apart on the tray
😋 Result
