Potato wedges are thick slices of potato, typically seasoned and baked or fried until golden and crispy. Originating as a popular side dish in Western cuisine, potato wedges combine the comforting texture of soft, fluffy potato interiors with a flavorful, crisp outer layer. They are often coated with a blend of spices like paprika, garlic powder, and pepper, adding a savory kick. While potatoes are a good source of potassium, vitamin C, and dietary fiber, the nutritional profile of potato wedges can vary depending on preparation. Baking wedges involves less oil, making them a healthier option, while frying increases calorie and fat content. Moderation is key, as added salt and high-calorie dips may affect overall nutritional balance. A staple at casual dining establishments and a favorite for home cooking, potato wedges are a satisfying complement to a variety of meals.
