What it is
These are pre-cut potato wedges that come with the skin still on. They are seasoned with a blend of spices, ready for cooking. The potatoes are typically par-cooked before seasoning and packaging.

They are a convenient way to enjoy potato wedges without the prep work.
How people cook with it
These seasoned potato wedges are a versatile side dish. They can be prepared in several ways to complement various meals.

To prepare these potato wedges, you can bake them in an oven. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet. For extra crispiness, you can add a little more oil. Bake until they are golden brown and tender. They can also be cooked in an air fryer for a quicker, crispier result. If you prefer, they can be pan-fried in a skillet with a bit of oil until they reach your desired level of doneness. Ensure they are heated through before serving.
