Sumac Spiced Potato Wedges Recipes

SUMAC-SPICED POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to hot (220°C/425°F-450°F/gas mark 7-8); line a baking tray with baking paper; or if yours is a particularly hot oven, perhaps a little lower than this.
• Cut the potatoes into wedges; combine the egg white, sumac and whichever of the optional ingredients you are using in a large bowl; add the potato wedges and combine well until the wedges are well-coated.
• Place the wedges, skin-side down on the baking tray; bake the wedges in the very hot oven for 40 minutes or until they are tender and golden brown; serve with tomato relish, your choice of salsa, tzatziki or sour cream or yoghurt (Greek yoghurt is the creamiest and, in my opinion, the yummiest!).
• NOTE: Sumac is a reddish-purple ground spice made from the berries of a wild shrub grown in Lebanon. It is available from Middle Eastern food stores and delicatessens.

RIDICULOUSLY EASY OVEN POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Dice, cube or chop the peeled potatoes into whatever shape you feel like making them.
• Rinse then thoroughly in cold water, drain well and transfer to a large bowl.
• Add oil and toss the potatoes around so they are evenly coated.
• Add all of the spices and the cheese and toss so they are evenly coated.
• Place on a baking pan in one layer (preferably lined) and bake for around 30-40 minutes, depending on person preference of potato texture.
• Suggestions! It's really really handy to line the pan before you bake them, or else you will have a sticky baked on mess on your pans that takes an awful lot of elbow grease to get rid of. You could add lemon juice to the potatoes to give them an extra fresh taste.
