Potato wedges are a popular side dish or snack that features thick-cut slices of potatoes seasoned and baked or fried to golden perfection. These hearty wedges are often seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, or herbs to enhance their flavor. Originating from Western cuisine, they are a staple in comfort food and are commonly paired with dips like ketchup, ranch, or sour cream. Nutritionally, potato wedges provide a source of vitamins like B6 and C, along with potassium from the potatoes. Baking the wedges rather than frying them makes for a healthier option, as it reduces added oils and fat content. While their simple ingredients can be wholesome, fried potato wedges may increase calorie intake and unhealthy fat levels. By using minimal oil and opting for nutrient-rich seasonings, they can be enjoyed as a flavorful and satisfying dish without compromising on balanced eating habits.
