Baked Seasoned Potato Wedges

April 18, 2011 in sides

These potatoes are my new favorite thing. I would eat these every single day for the rest of my life if I could. They’re slightly spicy with a crisp outside and pillow-y soft inside. Perfection in the form of a potato, pretty much.

I think this was the first time I’ve roasted the yukon golds and I have to say, they definitely make the best potato wedges. There’s something different about their texture that just makes them almost melt in your mouth once roasted. If your store doesn’t have the yukon golds (my store seems to run out of them quickly), the little red potatoes would be almost as good.

Be prepared to lose control around these wedges. They are addictive!
