This was a very tasty dish. I usually roast my red potatoes with olive oil and fresh rosemary from my garden. But using basil was a very nice change of pace. But the roasting time of 10-15 minutes was not enough for me. I needed over 30 minutes, but that could always be a quirk with my oven. Very much a "keeper" of a recipe.

Outstanding! For lunch the other day I fixed Briana's Spicy Mexicali Drumsticks #93611 and I figured these would fit nicely. I was right. because there was only two of us I cut the recipe in half. I had just taken delivery of an order of fresh spices,Real Hungarian Paprika was part of the order and I couldn't resist the temptation to dust half of the potato wedges with some before baking. I left half of the wedges un-dusted as a control. I like them both ways but I think that the distinct peppery flavor of good Paprika adds a good deal to the dish but then my opinion and a couple of dollars will get me a cup of coffee. Try it and see what you think. Thanx for posting this great recipe. Pierre

I live in Chattanooga with my daughter. I work at a used bookstore, and I love to read pretty much everything, especially cookbooks. Some of my favorite cookbooks are those of Nigel Slater, Barbara Kafka, Thomas Keller, and Nigella Lawson, plus the Moosewood series. I think perhaps my biggest pet peeve is food snobbery, and indeed snobbery in general. I love trying new things so much that I rarely make the same dish twice.
