Tribal People Try Potato Wedges For The First Time 

You can always tell when Aunty Zareena really likes a food; she doesn't talk about it until she has eaten most of it! Glad everyone enjoyed this potato dish.

I liked seeing Hamida serve the mashed potatoes she made. I think it would be GREAT if you did more of that! Why not do a meal where every person does a different western dish and they all eat it together?

Potato wedges are very good with a sandwich or with fried chicken! I had some with my lunch today!

Looks like you did a great job cooking these. I like to dip mine into mayonnaise with hot sauce in it.

I really enjoy this series, thank you.

I just had these with some fried chicken (dinner).

They're easy to make. First you "blanch" the potatoes by boiling them. Then you cool the potatoes down again with cold water or putting them in the fridge. Then you cut them the long way, slicing them into wedges. Then you either deep fry them, or first you lightly batter them with like an egg wash and flour, with salt and some spices, then fry them. They're fried until golden brown on the outside, and hot / soft on the inside. Then taken out, drained of excess oil and allowed to cool slightly. Served with ketchup. Typically a side dish along with a meal like fried chicken, or something burritos or something. Often served at American grocery store deli sections in the hot food section along with other fast, hot foods.

Fry your potatoes until cooked. Take them out and spread out to allow them to go cold. Re-cook, or double fry and the skin goes crunchy, and golden brown. Cool a little, then eat them straight away. The second frying time is much shorter. When you Start frying, the oil must be hot. Put a small piece of potato in, if it bubbles right away it is hot enough. Do not put so many chips or pieces of food in that they stop bubbling, your fat will become too cold to fry properly, and your chips will absorb too much of the oil. That is how you get soggy chips, very unhealthy soaked in oil. If your oil gets a bit cold, check your fire and wait until the temperature check is right again. Some of the colour on the wedges is spices. You can cook wedges in an oven with very little oil. Try one of your currys on them, think how tasty they could be. Tomato and basil salad goes well with potato. Butter, oil, garlic and lemon flavours are great in the oven, (butter sticks, but tastes great. oil does not taste so good, but doesn't stick) just stir all the flavours over the potato pieces before you cook it, in a tray. Double dipping is a big no-no, not allowed here. If you re-dip. Put the unbitten end in, if you dip the eaten end, you are sharing the bacteria which lives in your mouth, possibly spreading germs and disease. The bacteria in your mouth is healthy for you to have, but not so healthy for others, your spouse may not mind? Better still, put a small portion of sauce on your plate or a small individual dish, or on a portion of Naan, do not share it, then you can double dip all you like. It's not really hard to be kind, just take some simple precautions. Like wash your hands and your knife, before cooking and after you handle uncooked meat. Do not cough or sneeze all over everybody's food, cover your mouth and wash hands again. Cover your hair so loose strands do not fall into the food. Anybody who is ill, should not be cooking for anybody else. Some of the best chef's (professional cooks) are men. If your wife falls ill, can you cook for your family? Start on simple food.

Often served with tomato ketchup, sour cream, or sweet chilli dipping sauce.

Its not fries, its wedges.

Can someone explain to them how its disgusting and unhealthy to dip into the same sauce once the food has been in their mouth. Its how sickness is spread.
