Yum: Garlic Potatolings
This is what we had for dinner last night. I followed *this Betty Crocker recipe.* This dish was originally called 'Garlic Oven Fries' but I decided to call it 'Garlic Potatolings' because I used small potatoes instead of medium ones. Well, mostly because I found the word potatolings (if there is such a word) too cute not to be used. Haha. Don't judge ;P
I didn't follow the recipe all the way through, though. I just looked at the ingredients and used what we had here at home. Read on to know how I cooked this :)
As I've said earlier, I used small potatoes for this.
After washing them thoroughly and removing the bad bits, I cut the potatoes in half.
If you're using medium or large potatoes, you can cut them into wedges instead.
I mixed the potatoes with just the right amount of olive oil to coat them all. No need to drown them.
Time for seasoning! I mixed the potatoes with salt, garlic powder and basil.
I didn't really measure how much I put. I just estimated.
Before baking the potatoes, I transferred some of them to another baking pan so that they're not too crowded and would cook more quickly.
Then it's time to bake! I baked them for about 15 minutes at 260-270 deg C, stirring them halfway through the baking time.
It helps if you pre-heat the oven for about 3-5 mins. Pre-heating ensures that the oven is already at the right temperature by the time you put the potatoes in and helps them cook more quickly and evenly.
Finished product?
This!
