Baked Wedges

Things have been pretty rocky at home so comfort foods are becoming a really *comfort* to me now. (hahah, geddit? comfort foods a comfort? not funny huh?) Anyway, I've been turning to this really easy recipe to make home-baked potato wedges. The basic technique is simple and after you find your way around the kitchen, you'll be able to experiment further. So on three separate days, I tried three separate combinations for the potato and so here they are:

Day Three: Sweet Cajun Baked Wedges

3 medium sized russet potatoes, cut into similar sized wedges

(A) This is the part where you can experiment with but always put 2 tbsps of oil
 2 tablespoons of veg oil

1 teaspoon of cajun spices

1 teaspoon of honey mustard

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1/2 teaspoon of sugar

2 garlic cloves, grated 

Preheat oven to 180

Place a baking tray cover with foil into oven to heat up

Mix all ingredients in A

Microwave potato wedges for 10 mins

Once microwaved, mix the wedges with the mixture in A. 

Cover potatoes with a plate and marinate for 5 mins

Take tray out of the oven and place potatoes on them on one layer.  

Bake for 15 mins, flip them and them another 15.

Day Two: Spicy Cayenne Cajun Wedges



(A)
 2 tablespoons of veg oil
1 teaspoon of cayenne powder
1 teaspoon of cajun spices
A dash or 3 of sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt

Day One: Really Spicy Asian Wedges

(A)
 2 tablespoons of veg oil
1 teaspoon of chili powder
1 teaspoon of curry powder
A dash or 3 of cumin powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt


 So! 3 beautiful effortless types of Baked Wedges for three humdrum days! I've got to say, day one was really really spicy and hot and mouth on fire, not much flavor there though! Day two was a little bit better but day three was the best! The grated garlic made a huge huge huge difference and when I try this again, I'm thinking garlic, cajun spices and curry powder! Yummy!
