#LunchWithLo Episode 7: Roasted Potatoes with Infused Olive Oil

I love potatoes as a side dish. To the point that we eat some version of this dish 3 or 4 times a week. This week, I decided to infuse some olive oil with THC to kick my dinners up a notch and roast my potatoes with that, instead of just plain old olive oil. Guess what, it tasted just about the same as my non-infused version and it’s super easy to do. 

I don’t measure anything and I suggest you do the same. For this recipe I just used one small bag of baby potatoes (the colorful kind), and seasoned with salt, black pepper, onion powder, parsley, and paprika. I did measure the olive oil (1/4 cup) because I wanted to be sure of the dosage (about 225mg THC total for the full pan, around 60-65mg THC per serving). 

Directions: 

  1.  Preheat oven to 425 or 450 degrees fahrenheit. Go hotter with bigger potatoes, cooler for small ones.
  2. Thoroughly wash your potatoes.
  3. Quarter the potatoes if they’re baby potatoes, if they’re larger ones you’ll want to cut them in half the long way (if there is a long way) and then quarter each half.
  4. In a bowl (or on the baking sheet), toss potatoes, oil, and spices (to your taste preference). Toss thoroughly so all pieces are coated.
  5. Bake on bottom rack in back of the oven, for 25-35 minutes. Check every 5 minutes from 25 on if you’re worried about burning. 

The end result should be a potato wedge that is crispy on the outside, yet soft on the inside.
