Tips For Making Potato Wedges Recipe

Choosing Potatoes: I would heavily suggest you choose waxy potatoes or pink potatoes, as they contain ow moisture and sugar levels and along with that it has high starch content which helps to make them better for bake and fry.

Flour: flour plays an important role in making these Spicy Potato Wedges as this helps to bind the spices well with the potato and decrease the chances of burn. but make sure to use a small proportion. and you can also use half cornflour and half all purpose-flour for Potato Bites.

Parboiling Potatoes: this step is essential for the Fried Potato Wedges. when we bake Potato wedges they baked properly, but while frying them they may become uncooked from the inside so parboiling helps to cook and fry them completely.

Sweet Potato Wedges: for this recipe, you can also switch normal potatoes with sweet potatoes they also taste good as it has sweetness and the seasoning we use is salty and spicy so the combination of sweet and salty taste makes perfect pair.

Parmesan Potato Wedges: For making cheesy potato wedges, what you have to do is when potato wedges are cooked then grate cheese on them and bake till cheese melts.
