Crispy Herb Potato Wedges with Garlic and Dill
Easy Roasted Crispy Herb Potato Wedges with Dill and Thyme
Additional Information
- Can this be frozen? Yes. Allow the cooked wedges to cool completely, then freeze them in a single layer before transferring to a freezer-safe container or freezer bag. Freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat from frozen in a hot oven or air fryer until crisp again.
- How long can this be stored, and how? Store leftover wedges in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 400ā°F (200ā°C) oven or an air fryer for the best texture. Microwaving works but softens the outside.
- Should the potatoes be peeled? Leaving the skins on gives extra texture and flavour, but peeling them is perfectly fine if that’s your preference.
- Drying the potatoes after microwaving. Letting the steam escape and drying excess moisture helps create crispier wedges in the oven.
- Do I need to use food colouring? It isn’t necessary at all. The potatoes will naturally become beautifully golden in the oven, especially if they’re roasted until well browned.
- Can I make these in an air fryer? Yes. Cook at 400ā°F (200ā°C) for 18 to 22 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
- Can I prepare them ahead? Yes. Microwave, season, and refrigerate the wedges for several hours. Roast just before serving.
- What should I serve them with? They’re delicious with grilled chicken, steak, burgers, fish, sausages, roast beef, or simply with ketchup, garlic aioli, sour cream, or your favourite dipping sauce.
Substitute Suggestions
- Use avocado oil, canola oil, or vegetable oil instead of olive oil.
- Replace fresh dill with parsley, rosemary, oregano, or chives.
- If you don’t have Robertson’s seasonings, use your favourite roast potato seasoning blend with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried herbs, salt, and pepper.
- Sweet potatoes can be used instead, although they may roast a little faster.

Description
These crispy potato wedges are wonderfully seasoned, fluffy inside, and beautifully crisp on the outside. They’re simple enough for a weeknight dinner but just as welcome alongside burgers, grilled meat, or your favourite dipping sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes, washed – Peeling is optional
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp Robertson’s Aromatic Roast Potato Spice
- 1 tbsp Robertson’s Garlic and Herb Spice
- 1 to 2 sprigs fresh dill or fresh thyme, chopped
- A few drops of yellow food colouring (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400ā°F (200ā°C).
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Cut the 4 medium potatoes into evenly sized wedges so they’ll cook at the same rate.
- Place the potato wedges in a microwave-safe dish with a splash of water, cover loosely, and microwave for 5 minutes until just beginning to soften.
- Drain well and let the steam escape for a minute or two. This really helps them crisp up later.
- In a large bowl, toss the warm potato wedges with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp Robertson’s Aromatic Roast Potato Spice, and 1 tbsp Robertson’s Garlic and Herb Spice until every wedge is evenly coated.
- If you’d like a deeper golden colour, stir in a few drops of yellow food colouring. This is completely optional and won’t affect the flavour.
- Sprinkle over the chopped fresh dill or fresh thyme and toss gently once more.
- Arrange the wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking tray, leaving a little space between each piece.
- Overcrowding the pan can stop them from becoming crispy.
- Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, turning the wedges halfway through, until they’re deeply golden, crispy on the outside, and tender in the centre.
- Serve immediately while they’re hot and crispy
