Recipe: Potato Wedges

Tonight has ended up being my evening of chores, so it's only fitting that I share with you a recipe perfect for cooking a lazy meal in a short amount of time.

INGREDIENTS
Potatoes
Spices and Herbs
Olive Oil (out of all the oils, this one heats up the quickest)

Step 1: Without peeling the potatoes, chop them up into wedge-shapes. About 2 fist-sized potatoes should provide a decent portion.

Step 2: Pour in to the frying pan a thick amount of olive oil and heat the pan to the highest temperature. When adding the chopped potatoes, stir them round the pan to make sure all are covered in oil.

Step 3: Once the pan is heated, turn down the heat to medium temperature (don't want the wedges to burn). Stir frequently, and add in the desired herbs and spices, even a little salt if you wish. My favourite spice mix to use is the cajun chicken spice mix - looks, smells and tastes very authentic.

Step 4: Serve the wedges when they're ready. They should look golden and roasted with brown edges. If you're not certain, taste test ;).
