Ingredients
  

  • 5 large Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes
  • 4 large crisp apples (Fuji or Honey Crisp)
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup light olive oil or vegetable oil (extra virgin is more likely smoke at these temperatures)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 4 fresh rosemary sprigs, or 1 tablespoon of dried rosemary

Easy Garlic Aioli

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 large garlic clove, grated
  • ½ tsp garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Arrange the oven rack to the upper half. Preheat the oven to 400F (204 C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. 
  • While the water is heating up, scrub and rinse the potatoes and apples to remove any dirt. On a study flat surface, cut the potatoes and apples in half lengthwise, then lay the halves cut side down. 
  • Cut the halves into thirds so you end up with wedges. For the apples, cut the inner core and seeds out. 
  • Once the water is boiling, turn the heat off. Add the potato wedges to the hot water and let them soak for 10 minutes. 
  • Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them air dry for a few minutes. Shake the colander a few times to rough up the edges of the potato wedges. 
  • In a large bowl, add the potato wedges, apple wedges, salt, pepper, garlic powder, parmesan cheese and rosemary. 
  • Toss the potatoes and apples together until evenly coated in the oil and seasonings.
  • Pour the potato mixture in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet and evenly space out the potatoes and apples, ensuring each piece has a side touching the baking sheet. 
  • Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven. Roast the potatoes and apples for 30-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. 
  • If the potatoes don't look crispy enough to your liking, you can leave them in the oven for another 5-10 minutes to get extra crispy, just keep your eye on them so they don't burn! 

Easy Garlic Aioli

  • While the potatoes are roasting, make the garlic aioli. Mix the mayonnaise, garlic, and garlic in a small bowl until combined. That's it!
