For most of us we have realized that we really shouldn't eat deep fried food, but for me potato wedges of fries was something I'd really miss. Luckily it's easy enough to do really good potato wedges in the oven. This isn't as much a recipe as it is tips for getting really delicious wedges.
Start by washing your potatoes thoroughly. Then cut your potato into wedges. Try to get them as even in size as you can so that they cook at the same pace. Once you have cut the potatoes you will need to rinse them again to remove the starch. After rinsing put them on a tea towel to dry. You can use paper towels but cloth is better for the pocket book and the environment.
Once you've got them dry, put them in a bowl and pour a little amount of vegetable oil or olive oil and mix well so that they are completely covered with a thin layer of oil. Take a baking pan and cover it with tinfoil. You want to use tinfoil to help them get crispy. Then place them on the foil and sprinkle with a chili based BBQ spice.

Preheat the oven to 200C and when it's warm put the pan in the lower third of the oven for 20 minutes. Take the pan out and turn all of them over and then put them back in for another 20 minutes. I like to do some carrots and onion together with the wedges since they take about the same amount of time. The wedges should be fluffy inside and very tasty. Pick and choose what you want to serve them with.
Today I decided to have my wedges with a homemade burger. One of my favorites.
