Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup avocado oil
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Cut each potato into wedges by first cutting in half lengthwise, then cut each half into quarters to create 8 wedges per potato.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato wedges and 2 tablespoons of avocado oil. Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix together the arrowroot powder, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, black pepper, and sea salt.
Step 5
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the potato wedges and toss to coat all the wedges evenly.
Step 6
Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until they start to get crispy and golden brown.
Step 8
Remove the baked potato wedges from the oven, and let them cool slightly while you heat the remaining 1/2 cup of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 9
When the oil is hot (approximately 350°F or 175°C), add the potato wedges in batches, frying them for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are crispy and achieve a deeper golden brown color.
Step 10
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the finished wedges to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 11
Serve the Whole30 Crispy Fried Potato Wedges immediately with your favorite Whole30 compliant dipping sauce or enjoy them as is.
