# Components:
→ Potatoes
01 - 2 medium russet potatoes, approximately 14 oz, scrubbed
→ Coating
02 - 1 tbsp olive oil
03 - 1 tsp cornstarch
04 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
05 - 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
06 - 1/2 tsp salt
07 - 1/4 tsp black pepper
→ Garnish (optional)
08 - 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
09 - Flaky sea salt, to taste
# Method:
01 - Cut potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds or wedges.
02 - Place potato pieces into a microwave-safe bowl with 2 tbsp water. Cover loosely with a microwave-safe lid or plate, and microwave on high for 5 minutes until just tender.
03 - Drain any excess water. Add olive oil, cornstarch, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the potatoes and toss to coat evenly.
04 - Spread coated potato pieces in a single layer on a large microwave-safe plate lined with parchment paper.
05 - Microwave uncovered on high for 4 to 5 minutes. Flip each piece, then microwave for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until golden and crisp, monitoring closely to avoid burning.
06 - Transfer potatoes to a serving plate. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and flaky sea salt if desired. Serve immediately.
