Ingredients

• 500 grams Baby potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
• 4 Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

Thoroughly wash the baby potatoes and dry them with a kitchen towel.

Step 3

Cut any larger potatoes in half to ensure all pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, Cajun seasoning, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir to mix well.

Step 5

Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss thoroughly until they are well-coated with the spice mixture.

Step 6

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup and spread the potatoes in a single layer on the sheet.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the potatoes are crispy and golden brown on the outside, and tender inside. Flip them halfway through baking for even crispiness.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them sit for a few minutes.

Step 9

Transfer the potatoes to a serving platter and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Step 10

Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side for an added zesty kick.
