Potato Wedges

The best type of potato wedges is those that are super crunchy on the outside but as soft as clouds on the inside. This is just the recipe for that.

For deep frying our potato wedges, we have used Ondoliva Olive Pomace Oil, provided to us by one of our partners, Sosun Fihaara. The Ondoliva Olive Pomace Oil has a smooth taste and is light and delicate. This specific one is recommended for cooking and deep frying, which is perfect for this recipe as it leaves no oily taste after deep frying.
