Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 whole Garlic bulb
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and cut them into evenly sized wedges.

Step 3

In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Toss the potato wedges in the seasoning mixture until evenly coated.

Step 5

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the potato wedges in a single layer, leaving some space between each wedge.

Step 6

Cut the top off the garlic bulb to expose the cloves, drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, wrap in aluminum foil, and place it on the baking sheet with the potatoes.

Step 7

Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping the potato wedges halfway through, until they are golden and crispy. Roast the garlic bulb for the same duration until soft and fragrant.

Step 8

While the potatoes bake, prepare the roasted garlic dip. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins into a bowl and mash into a paste using a fork.

Step 9

In a medium bowl, combine the roasted garlic paste, sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped fresh parsley, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 10

Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if needed by adding a pinch of salt or more lemon juice.

Step 11

Remove the potato wedges from the oven and let them rest for 3-5 minutes.

Step 12

Serve the crispy potato wedges warm with the roasted garlic dip on the side.
