Here’s a simple, flavorful recipe for Oven Fried Potatoes & Onions—crispy, golden, and easy to make without deep frying.
🥔🧅 Oven Fried Potatoes & Onions
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes (sliced into wedges or thin rounds)
- 1 large onion (sliced)
- 3–4 tbsp olive oil (or any cooking oil)
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder (or 2 cloves minced garlic)
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- ½ tsp chili flakes (optional)
- Fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
👨🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat oven
- Set oven to 220°C (425°F)
- Lightly grease a baking tray or line with parchment paper
2. Prep potatoes
- Wash and cut potatoes evenly (thin slices = crispier result)
- Pat dry to remove excess moisture (helps crisping)
3. Season
- In a large bowl, mix potatoes + onions + oil + spices
- Toss well so everything is evenly coated
4. Bake
- Spread mixture in a single layer on the tray
- Bake for 25–35 minutes
- Flip halfway through for even browning
5. Crisp finish
- For extra crispiness, broil/grill for 2–3 minutes at the end (watch closely)
🍽️ Serving ideas
- With eggs for breakfast 🍳
- As a side for chicken or fish 🍗🐟
- With yogurt or dipping sauce
💡 Tips for best results
- Don’t overcrowd the tray (key for crisp texture)
- Use high heat for “fried-like” edges
- Soaking potatoes in water for 20 minutes (optional) can make them even crispier
If you want, I can also give you a low-oil version for weight loss or a spicy street-style version.
