Top Tips – Super Easy Potato Wedges
I never peel potatoes. Life is too short. All the goodness is near the skin and the skin gives such a great texture why would you remove it?
Use floury potatoes (not waxy e.g. salad potatoes), the wedges will then be crispy on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside.
The key to these wedges is a hot oven (but not too hot), not too much oil (just enough to coat the potatoes) and cooking for a little longer than you might expect. The result is a crisp outside and a light and fluffy inside.
