Ingredients
- 2 large yellow potatoes
- 1 quart cold water, for soaking
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil or vegetable oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp sweet paprika
- 2.1 oz feta cheese, crumbled
- Fresh parsley and oregano, chopped, to taste
- Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions
Cut potatoes into uniform sticks. Soak in a bowl of cold water for 15 minutes to remove excess starch.
Drain the potatoes, rinse under running water, and dry thoroughly with paper towels.
In a large bowl, combine dried potatoes with oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly coated.
Preheat the appliance to 383°F. Place potatoes in the basket and cook for 25-28 minutes. Shake the basket every 10 minutes to ensure even cooking.
Transfer cooked potatoes to a serving bowl. Immediately garnish with crumbled feta, fresh parsley, and oregano.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges.

"Garnish with feta and herbs after cooking. Applying them during the cooking process will cause the cheese to melt excessively and separate."
