Garlic, Parmesan + Fresh Herb Oven Fries

Instead of regular olive oil I substituted some of my beloved, garlic infused oil. It gives the fries the flavor with out the risk of burning the garlic. Once the potatoes were baked and crispy, I tossed them smoked sea salt flakes and sprinkled them with chopped fresh herbs that I hand-picked from my garden and grated fresh Parmesan (that I didn't come from my garden ;) ) over top. I prefer the cold cheese sticking to my fries but feel free to slide these back into the oven to get them all melty.

Slide the pans into your preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. Rotate and swap each pan and bake for 10 more minutes or until crispy. Depending on the size of your potato wedges, they may require an additional 10 minutes.
