Really wanted to like this. It sounds great looks really delicious in your pics. But for the life of me, I could not get the coating to stick to a dry potato. Tried spray oil and that didn’t work either. You skipped over how to do that and get a solid coating in your instructions. I ended up adding a little more melted butter and having to slather it on. Then it all melted off when I cooked it. Really disappointed.
I am sorry to hear it didn’t work out for you, Kelly!
Great recipe! Areal family hit!
Thanks for sharing!
These were really tasty!!! I’m wondering if I did some thing wrong though? The parm was stuck on the bottom of the pan pretty good and after letting them sit for 7 mins it basically fell Off and I had to scrape it from the pan and kind of set it on the wedges. Is there a trick to making it so it’s not sticking to the pan and easier to stick to the potatoes? Flavor was excellent!
Did you spray the pan with nonstick spray? That’s very important!
Wow these potato wedges looks so perfect. Crispy crunchy from out n soft from inside..
Okay, i’m an idiot lol! Just realized there’s a vIdeo! Forgive me!
No don’t way that! Glad you found the video. I’ve been out with a sick baby so haven’t seen comments this week. SOrry about that!!
Hi. In the process of makIng these, but confuses as to which sIde the “exposed” side is. Some of thr wedges have three flesh sides, and some have two. Help!
So sorry I missed your comment!! xoxo
Great recipe.goes great with many burger and dinner dishes
So happy to hear that! These are our go-to as well. Have a great night!!
Tryed a recipe before this way and was terrible. But WOW this recipe is sooooooo!!! good I am making it again tonight!!! YUMMY!
I was wondering if you use freshly grated parmesan, the kind in the green can or the preshredded in the plastic bags in the refrigerated cheese section? I am sure we will also be devouring thm..yum!
Yum, Yum! Appetizer or with as a main meal looks like a yummy winner to me!
