Fried Potato Wedges are a popular side dish or snack made from thick potato slices, typically seasoned with salt, spices, and sometimes herbs, then deep-fried or oven-baked to achieve a crispy exterior and soft interior. Originating in Western cuisine, they are often associated with comfort food and casual dining. Their rich and savory flavor makes them a versatile accompaniment to various meals. While they do provide essential nutrients like potassium and dietary fiber from the potatoes themselves, the frying process increases their fat and calorie content, which may not fit well into low-fat diets. Opting for oven-baked wedges or using healthier oils can make them a more nutritious choice. Perfectly seasoned and satisfying, they remain a beloved treat and an easy-to-prepare option for gatherings and meals.
