Homemade Potato Wedges
I gave up buying frozen chips and wedges years ago when I discovered how easy they are to make at home myself. I like to par boil them, but just for a few minutes to hold their shape. This will speed up the baking time and give a lovely fluffy centre.

Ingredients
4 large Maris Piper potatoes, cut into wedges
2 garlic cloves, whole
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 tbsp duck or goose fat
1 tbsp butter
Salt and pepper
Method
Place the potato wedges in a saucepan of boiling salted water for 5-7 minutes, strain and set aside.
Melt the fat and butter in a saucepan.
Place the wedges into a large bowl and coat all over with the melted oil and butter. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Place the coated wedges onto a large baking tray, try not to overlap for even baking.
Add the whole garlic cloves and rosemary for flavour.
Oven-bake for 30-40 minutes until golden and crispy turning halfway through cooking. Once cooked, season with salt before serving.
