Wedges with sweet chilli and sour cream

It’s a good idea to start these well in advance so the potatoes have time to chill before roasting. You can even start it the day before if you have time.

Ingredients

  • 2 large potatoes, scrubbed
  • 1 large sweet potato, scrubbed
  • 75 g (½ cup) plain flour
  • 170 ml vegetable oil
  • 125 g (½ cup) sour cream
  • 1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 2 tsp chipotle hot sauce
Seasoning
  • 2 tbsp salt
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper
Chilling/freezing time: 2 hours

Instructions

  1. Microwave the whole, unpeeled potatoes and sweet potato for 15 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature. Cut into wedges, dust lightly with the flour (I use a pastry brush to dust them) and place on a lined baking tray in the freezer. Freeze for at least 1 hour or overnight if time permits.
  2. To make the seasoning, heat the salt in a dry frying pan until it starts to crackle, then transfer the hot salt to a mortar and add the spices. Grind to a fine powder.
  3. Preheat the oven to 220˚C. Pour the oil into a large baking dish, the place into the oven to heat up. Place the wedges in a single layer into the hot oil. Bake for 30 minutes, then turn over and bake for a further 20 - 30 minutes or until the wedges are crisp and browned.
  4. Remove from the tray and sprinkle liberally with the seasoning. Serve with the sour cream, sweet chilli sauce and chipotle sauce.
