Instructions
 

Oven Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Clean the potato well and pat dry. Slice the potato into wedges and place in a mixing bowl.
  • Toss the potatoes in the oil until evenly covered. Add the cornstarch and spices and toss until completely coated.
  • Place the wedges in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake 20 minutes, flip and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until they have reached your desired crispness.

Air Fryer Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer for 3 minutes to 390 degrees F. Add the potato wedges in a single layer (this may take multiple batches based on how large your air fryer is).
  • Air fry 7 minutes, toss the basket and fry an additional 7-8 minutes until crispy.

Notes

Remember, cooking time will vary based on the width and length of your potato wedges. They are done when they are fork tender and crispy on the outside.
*You an use your favorite all purpose seasoning blend instead of Cajun if you prefer. These wedges are also excellent with Ranch seasoning as well.
