Ingredients

  1. Deselect All
  2. 3 medium russet potatoes, preferably organic
  3. 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for the pan
  4. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  5. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  6. 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  7. 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  8. 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  9. 2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

  1. Place a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven; preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Wash the potatoes well, then pat them dry. Cut each potato lengthwise into 1-inch-thick wedges. Toss the wedges with 1 tablespoon of the oil, 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper.
  3. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and brush it lightly with oil. Arrange the wedges, cut-side-down, on the sheet in a single layer. Bake until the underside is golden brown and not sticking to the baking sheet, about 25 minutes. Use a metal spatula to loosen and flip the potatoes, then continue to bake until golden brown and crisp all over, about 20 minutes more.
  4. Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring often, until golden, about 3 minutes. Add the paprika and cook 30 seconds, stirring. Remove from the heat and cool slightly; then stir the mixture into the mayonnaise.
  5. Sprinkle the potato wedges with parsley and serve with the aioli for dipping.

Yummy!  Not only with steak but with grilled chicken, bbq chicken, hamburger steak, you name it!

I made these right after I watched the show!  I also made these about 4 times since, because it is such a quality recipe.  Oven fries are always easy to make, but Ms. Heaton’s aioli recipe is superb…and that’s what makes it.   Where’s the emoji for thumbs up?
Rebecca Davidson
I have made these twice now & they are simply delicious. Crisp outside & fluffy inside. I am usually not a fan of oven baked fries but this in my opinion is a steak fry recipe & I love it. I did add chopped rosemary. The aioli simple & a great dip for the potatoes. Great recipe.
