Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (392°F), (no fan).

  2. In a large bowl, mix potatoes with olive oil and all the seasonings until evenly coated.

  3. Spread potatoes out on a baking tray in a single layer (use parchment paper for easier cleanup).

  4. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.

  5. Serve hot as a side dish, appetizer, or snack.


💡 Tips & Variations

  • For extra crispiness, flip the potatoes halfway through baking (optional).

  • Add grated parmesan after baking for a cheesy twist and let it melt with residing heat.

  • Adjust the spiciness level to your preference!
