Potato wedges ALWAYS taste better at restaurants
• why potato wedges ALWA... - Розваги
As a home cook that's getting into catering events, getting more serious with cooking, I really appreciate your videos. Keep it up!
Honestly if you want a pretty low fat and easy option, you can get decently close to tater wedges in my opinion by just doing the following:
1. Set your air fryer to 420°F on the air fry setting. (Temp may vary a bit between air fryers, but this is what works for my mini-oven style air fryer.)
2. Eye, wash, and dry the potatoes (don't peel!), then cut em pretty much how ever you want. I've done thin chunks, thick chunks, spirals, diced, whatever. Just be aware that the bigger the chunks the more time it'll need to cook well. For best results though, stick to the size of a standard large tater wedge or smaller.
3. (optional, but can give crispier results) Soak the potatoes in water for 10-30 mins (longer is better but don't stress if you've only got 10 mins). Then, drain em and then gently pat them dry.
4. Toss with oil (I've used canola or EEVO, but any should work). Use just enough oil to coat them. You don't really want them dripping. You just want enough that the seasoning sticks, basically.
5. Now, you add literally whatever seasonings you would like and toss them again to spread it. I like the Kingsford Louisiana Cajun spice, along with some salt and pepper. Bojangles spice would also be a good option. But really, it's up to you and your preferences!
6. Throw in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for around 10 minutes, then check them. If they're not as crisp as you want, cook for longer. If after 15 minutes they still aren't as crisp as you want, simply turn on the broiler setting on high until you reach the desired result (keep a close eye on them if broiling, cause it can burn them fast!).
This all results in a delicious tater-wedge texture with a crisp and crunchy outside. And you didn't even have to bread them!
I find that this gets you pretty close to a healthy tater wedge that is easy and quick!
I’m a sous chef and a new subscriber, really love watching your content! I enjoy watching other chefs cook, I’m bound to learn something, looking forward to future episodes. Cheers.
Can’t wait to make these❤
"Because fat is delicious" 100% facts. Gluten is also delicious. Ever have to eat a fat free/gluten free food? I would rather eat a fire starter stick.
Yea same
i got celliac disease so yay
Gluten + Fat = JOY

Really do like your vibe Matt
Appreciate you
How did you cut those into gems? Looks like cut into wedges and then cut those in half at an angle? I can't tell
Gems?
Gonna have to try the steam method, we always used the leftover bakers from the day before. Always cook extra potatoes at home
Always good having extra on deck
gem cuts....i love it
This ASMR gold! And amazing fries!
Thank you 😋
What brand are your large containers of spices?
Spiceology

Mat off topic but could you make a video of your workout routine 😅

Yesss
@@acooknamedMattplease
what happened to michael :c. I started watching you again the last time i watched your videos was when you were having your good soup days xd
0:10 It starts with...
ONE THING. I DON'T KNOW WHY.
good morning
so could you microwave a whole potato instead of steaming it?
Wouldn't that result in more like a baked potato?
Can you acatually put hot food in the freezer? Is the mystery solved?
This is my fridge not freezer
@@acooknamedMatt And is the fridge safe? heard some myths that it is not. I wish it was tho because it would speed up things xdd
@@krzysztofwasilewski102so, it depends on the amount of food. A bit of hot food in the fridge is fine, but in large amounts it causes the inside of the fridge to warm up, which can speed up the spoiling process of other foods. So, if you put something warm in the fridge, I wouldn't put a lot and I'd make sure any milk or quick to spoil things are moved away from the warm item.
never had a wedge taste better at a restaurant
That just means your better
Very cool, but instead of blanching, how about putting them into the microwave? It seems easier.
That could work
Tried it a couple of times, I picked potatoes with a fork before tossing them in the microwave for 5min (~750/800 watts) then cut and fried them at 340fh for couple of minutes. A pretty quick and convenient way to make some
man's gettin a lot of use outta that 8mm lens
It’s the new insta 360 X4 and the angles are insane
@@acooknamedMatt Oh word? Didn't know action cams looked that good nowadays. hell yeah
U taste better at a restaurant 🙈
Fr
On gawd
i mean thats nice and all but i think the time investment is still to much would be nice to find some kind of middleground
That’s cooking for ya. Its not always “10 minute meals” but sometimes it is
@@acooknamedMattagreed!!! Deliciousness takes time and effort :)
New Subscriber here! LOVE your entertaining, especially informative content!
(2:45 That $1200.00 USD Breville Countertop Induction Burner makes me swooooooon! I can spot those things a mile away! - IYKYK.)
Really nice but just too much time and effort for this “carby” delight. There are great frozen varieties that 15 mins in oven or air fryer. Or, go to a restaurant!
I think I found the perfect French fry” … goofy asss 😂😂😂😂
What did mat do to you dont gotta be a b****
Oooh I HATE McDonald’s. They limp after 2 mins. Says everything. I am from Ireland. Trust me, you got nothing on us.
Buddy thinks he is cool 😂😂😂
I bet all of your subs think your cool
If you make your own fries at home, not so sure the ones at a restaurant would be better... Now if we're talking about just grabbing a frozen bag of fries from the grocery store, then yes of course lmao
