Description

These microwave-friendly potato wedges are a quick and satisfying side dish or appetizer. The potatoes are tossed in a savory blend of oil, minced garlic, paprika, and soy sauce, creating a rich umami flavor profile with a gentle kick of heat. Unlike traditional oven roasting, this method yields tender interiors with slightly crisp edges in a fraction of the time. Perfect for busy weeknight dinners, casual potlucks, or as a hearty vegan starter. The combination of earthy potatoes and aromatic spices makes this a comforting dish that appeals to all ages.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a microwave-safe 8x12-inch baking dish, combine oil, minced garlic, pepper, and paprika. Microwave for 30-45 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Stir the soy sauce into the hot oil mixture.
  3. Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut each one into 6 even wedges, leaving the skins on.
  4. Add the potato wedges to the dish and toss gently to coat evenly with the oil mixture.
  5. Cover the dish with a microwave-safe lid or vented plastic wrap.
  6. Microwave on high for 15-18 minutes, stopping twice during cooking to turn and rearrange the wedges for even cooking.
  7. Remove from microwave, discard any excess liquid, and serve immediately.
