Potato Wedges, huuuum...It's one of my favorite side dishes in the restaurant. But I never tried it at home. As rice is our base meal so I never actually thought to make some.
Yesterday, my son was asking for some french fries and I was out of any ready-made frozen one. So, I thought why don't I try making some potato wedges for him. I know that it's easier to prepare and need less time than french fries. I was not actually sure how better I can do. But I just go through a YouTube video and made my own!
So, here is the final result!
Now, I'm sharing my recipe strait away.
What we need:
Large potato- 2 piece
Salt
Peeper/ Dried chili/ Chili flakes
Chili power
Baking Soda
Cornflower
*Pill the potatoes and slice them.
Put them in the freezer to chill for one hour. If you don't have that much time (like me ;), put them in ice-cold water for half an hour.
Boil them for a few minutes. And then let it cool for a few minutes.
I used this type of chili to make chili flacks. You can use paprika or chili powder instead.
Making the seasoning
Put some chili flacks, a pinch of chili powder, salt, one teaspoon of baking soda and some cornflower at once. Put some cold water and mix it well. Don't make it too thick or thin. Just normal.
Put the potato slices in the seasoning and mix it well. But careful as they are boiled so they may break easily.
Heat the pan with vegetable oil and put the potato slices into it.
Keep the fire of the oven in medium and fry for a minute or two.
And, you are ready to eat it. Serve it with salad and sauce. That's it. You are done.
This is the lazy and easy potato wedges recipe. I hope you like it.
The two things I have learned very important, making this recipe. One, 'chilling the potato' in the cold water and freezer is very important. And second, the amount of baking soda. Just put a little bit to make it crunchy, don't overdo it. Otherwise, it's gonna give you a wired bitter taste.
I hope you enjoy my recipe. If you are like mine and still didn't try it at home. You can try it now. It's super easy and tasty.
