Baked Potato Wedges (spicy tangy flavor)

Yesterday we had a good rainfall with thunderstorms and we enjoyed watching the rain drops with small ice pellets hitting the glass panes of windows.Soon there was a layer of ice pellets on the ground and melted away soon after the rain stopped.Its indeed a natural pleasure to see the rains drizzling and we feel to have something hot and spicy to enjoy the warmth inside.That's how I ended up making these baked potato wedges with a cup of hot tea.Its a very simple yet tasty n oil free recipe to enjoy !!


Ingredients
Potatoes 6 medium
Garlic,chopped 6 cloves (make a paste)
Pepper powder 1/2 teaspoon
Olive oil 6 tablespoons
lemon juice 2tsp 
salt to taste



Method
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F or 180 degrees C and cut the potato wedges without peeling the skin.Blanch them in hot saline water.Mix in the spices ,salt and garlic,olive oil,lemon juice.Line atray with aluminium foil and layer the potatoes in it .Place it in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. Serve Crispy baked potato wedges with tomato ketchup!!

NOTES
* You can add a tsp of mixed herbs as well.

  2. Wedges are a firm favourite in my family; we use my daughter's mix of paprika, Chinese 5-spice, chilli, asafoetida (hing) and basil mixed with a little rice or wheat flour to coat them. Recently started to follow your blog, and I really enjoy it. I left you an award on mine: drop by anytime from 10:00am (BST) Friday to pick it up. Happy Cooking! :)

  16. That is very handy. I love fries but stay away from it as much as possible due to the oil! Baking seems to be a healthier option and they look like normal fries :)
