Yummy! I left the skin on the potatoes, and broiled them for a couple minutes. I also left out the cayenne. I think that they were a tad over spiced, but that's just my opinion. I'll make them again for sure though :) Thanks!

Grab a beer, dear! We absolutely loved these, and will forward the recipe to children. Yegads, I even selected an empty spice jar to store more of this seasoning. These were spicy hot after I doused the potato wedges uniformly. I, too, noticed that the few remaining wedges did not require the same time, so watch them if you aren't cooking a full batch. We find that a 12" pizza pan's worth produces just enough fries for two of us (less than 2 full-size russet baking potatoes). I left the skins on after washing, cuz that's how we roll.

I am a self confessed cumin addict, so it was no surprise to me that these fries tasted great.
I just love that smell and the wonderful flavour that it brings.
DH and I happily demolished a pile of them, and I am in no doubt that they will be made again and again.
Made and reviewed as a THANK YOU for tagging in PRMR during the recent TIC-TAC-TOE event.
