These roasted potatoes are ready in 45 minutes and give you 14 g of protein per serving, with garlic, rosemary and MEALUP Cheddar sprinkled on straight out of the oven. This is the side dish that disappears from the table first.

For a crisp crust, don't pile the potatoes on top of each other in the pan. A little more space between the wedges means more hot air around each one.

MEALUP Cheddar goes on as soon as the potatoes come out of the oven, while they're still hot. The heat helps the cheddar flavor cling to the crust, and MEALUP never goes in the oven.

The recipe

Ingredients

Serves 3

Preparation

  1. Cut the potatoesScrub the potatoes and cut them into wedges, leaving the skin on if it's thin.
  2. Season themPut the potatoes in a bowl and add the oil, grated garlic, rosemary, salt and black pepper. Toss well until every wedge is coated.
  3. Spread on a baking sheetSpread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, without overlapping.
  4. RoastRoast at 200°C for 30 to 35 minutes, turning the wedges halfway, until golden and crisp outside.
  5. Sprinkle and serveTake the potatoes out of the oven and, while they're still hot, sprinkle them right away with 1½ servings (45 g) of MEALUP Cheddar, ½ serving (15 g) per person. Toss gently and serve.

Tips

  • Want them even crispier? Soak the wedges in cold water for 20 minutes before roasting to draw out the extra starch.
  • No rosemary? Use oregano or cumin.
  • Serve with a yogurt dip, or alongside a fresh salad.
  • In an air fryer: 18 to 20 minutes at 200°C, giving them a stir halfway through.
  • Want more protein? Use a full serving (30 g) per person, and each plate comes to about 24 g of protein.

MEALUP Cheddar goes on right after roasting, while the potatoes are still hot. The heat helps the cheddar flavor stick to the crispy crust, without MEALUP ever going into the oven.

Protein calculated from USDA FoodData Central and the MEALUP label (20 g in 1 serving).
