Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Peel the potatoes and cut into thick wedges. Put in a pan, pour in enough water to cover and bring to the boil. Simmer for 2 mins, then drain well, shaking the colander.
  2. Put the olive oil, lemon juice and rosemary in a roasting tin with some salt and pepper. Add the potatoes and toss well until they are coated and glistening. Leave to soak up the oil and lemon for 10 mins, then bake for 20-30 mins, shaking the tin halfway through until the potatoes are nicely browned and glossy.

    These were delicious! Golden, crispy and very tasty. Will be making again very soon. I served them with the 20 minute pork pan fry and some fresh steamed broccoli - yummy!

    These were really good - boyfriend thought they were some of the tastiest wedges I'd made in a while! They were lovely and crispy with a hint of lemon, not overpowering. I served them as a side with griddled tuna steaks and a Mediterranean tomato salsa.

    These are beautiful. Had friends over for tea one night and did these with the rarebit pork chops and mangetout, baby carrots and baby corn on the side and went down a storm! Looks like a lot of Lemon juice but it all soaks in to the potatoes and gives a really refreshing difference to normal homemade chips! Gorgeous!

    Had to half the recipe for two. Found it a bit too lemony and despite adding extra time and upping the oven temp the wedges didn't crisp.

    I might try this tonight with slow-cooked belly of pork with caramelised shallots as I think it will compliment the fattiness of the pork. However, do I need new glasses or can spot some garlic cloves in the photo ? ....I love garlic so might throw some in anyway !

    These are absolutely gorgeous and so easy. I cubed my potatoes and added whole cloves of garlic to the roasting try, really tasty!

    Sorry but I thought these were horrible, the wedges cooked nicely, but the lemon was way too overpowering, and pretty much spoiled the meal. :(

    These wedges are fab! I regularly do these, particularly if there is a large crowd - I've never had any complaints!

    These made a pleasant change from normal roast potatoes and were easy to do. However, the lemon was too prominent (I was cooking for two, so halved the amount to the juice of 1 lemon - but it was still too much). Also, there is definitely garlic in the picture, and I added some as a matter of course. I'll make these again (as they make rather nice nibbles as left overs too!) But I'll reduce the lemon - might even just add zest instead of juice next time. The idea of soaking the par-boiled wedges in the flavoured oil is terrific and you could vary the flavourings to complement the main dish, which makes them very adaptable.
