Steps

1
Done

Cover potatoes with very hot water, then wash thoroughly. Cut each into 8 wedges. Sprinkle with olive oil, oregano, half a teaspoon of salt, and paprika. Mix.

2
Done

Place a single layer of potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake at 390 °F for 40 minutes. Stir every 10 minutes to make sure the potatoes cook evenly.

3
Done

Pour flour into a saucepan, add butter and mix with a whisk until it is completely dissolved and you have a homogeneous mass. Gradually add milk in portions, continuously stirring. Cook the sauce over low heat.

4
Done

When the sauce begins to thicken, simmer it for another 1–2 minutes, then add salt, pepper, tomato paste, sour cream, and 4 oz (120 g) of grated cheese. Cook for a few more minutes, stirring, until the cheese is completely melted. The consistency of the sauce should be like that of sour cream. If lumps remain, pass the mass through a sieve.

5
Done

Sprinkle a round baking dish with grated cheese (approximately 1 oz (30 g). Lay the potato wedges in a circle, placing them vertically. Pour the sauce over everything and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake at 390 °F for another 10–12 minutes.

It is a masterpiece! You could eat crispy potato wedges with your fingers! The hot cheese stretches beautifully, and the potatoes are very creamy and tender. Try baking the potatoes in the oven according to our recipe — you'll be impressed!

I am an English major with a love of languages and fiction, and with an incurable travel bug. In my free time, I read fantasy, drink copious amounts of coffee, and like to go see movies. Culinary art means everything to me. My main hypostasis is the taster, though. The music school has taught me to appreciate the symphony of airy meringues, to create harmonious overtures of light snacks, hard rock of meat, fish, and vegetables on the grill. Choir classes have accustomed me to hear and feel the people nearby and create perfect harmonies of sounds.
