    Actually we ahve a long running thread full of good ideas for wedges, and lots of other tips that you may find useful.

    So I've added your query to it. Usual rules apply - posts are listed in date order so you'll need to read from the beginning to catch up.

    Good luck :)

    I've looked for this in the collections but can't find anything - I've tried many times to make my own and they're never a success especially compared to shop bought. Wondering has anybody any advice??

    It's all here - potato wedges. Mine are in the oven now - cut a potato into 8 wegdes. Arrange on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and flavour with garlic, herbs, chilli, as you like. Bake until soft.

    I made these for the first time last night.
    I took two large baking potatoes, nuked in the microwave for 5 mins, then cut each potato into 12 wedges, coated in oil and BBQ Seasoning, spread out on an oven tray and cooked at gas 7 for 20-25 mins turning half way. they turned out crispy and were very yummy. HTH

    I always make 2 batches, and freeze one, never had any problem with them.
