About this recipe

Yellow fingerling potato wedges keep their skin on. Boil the wedges, then fry them in butter and olive oil until golden. Semi-dried Italian herbs, garlic, onion and paprika go in as they fry. Serve with ketchup, ranch, garlic aioli or horseradish dip. A side for four, ready in about 45 minutes.

Tip: Boil the wedges until a fork goes in with ease, but not so soft they break apart. Then fry them in butter and olive oil until the skin and the potato turn golden.

Ingredients

  • Wedges
  • Garlic aioli (optional)
  • Horseradish dip (optional)
  • To serve

Method

  1. 01

    Boil the wedges in salted water until fork-tender, about 10-12 min: the fork goes in with ease, but they're not so soft they break apart.

  2. 02

    Take them out, strain them and let them cool a little.

  3. 03

    Put the butter and olive oil into a large frying pan over medium-high heat.

  4. 04

    Add the wedges, then season with salt and pepper first.

  5. 05

    Fry a few minutes until they start getting a little color, then flip them around the pan, back and forth a few times. Fry a little more; they'll start catching the oil.

  6. 06

    Add the semi-dried Italian herbs and keep frying.

  7. 07

    Once the wedges pick up color and get a good fry on the skin and potato, add the granulated garlic, granulated onion and a little paprika. Toss.

  8. 08

    Once they're a good golden color (about 12-15 min of frying in all), add another knob of butter and a little more herbs.

  9. 09

    Cook about 60 seconds more, then plate. Serve with ketchup, ranch dressing, garlic aioli or horseradish dip, though the sauces are up to your own taste.

Notes & swaps

  • Stir together while the potatoes boil.
  • Fingerlings are smaller, so the wedges make easy finger food. Multicolor fingerlings work too, but this recipe uses yellow.
  • Serve with ketchup, ranch dressing, garlic aioli or horseradish dip, though the sauces are up to your own taste.
