Ingredients

FOR THE ROASTED CURRY POTATO WEDGES:

  • 2 lbs Yukon gold potatoes, skin on (about 4 large potatoes)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3/4 tsp curry powder
  • 3/4 tsp Himalayan pink salt , or sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper

FOR THE CILANTRO LIME DIPPING SAUCE:

  • 1/2 cup raw cashews, soaked *see recipe note
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice , about 2 limes
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 tsp Himalayan pink salt , or sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

FOR THE ROASTED CURRY POTATO WEDGES:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set that aside while we work on the potatoes.

  2. Wash and cut your potatoes into ½ inch wedges and place in a large mixing bowl.

  3. In a small bowl, combine you spices and avocado oil. Mix until the mixture is smooth.

  4. Pour the spice and oil mixture over your potatoes and toss using your hands. You want all the wedges to be evenly coated with the spices and oil. 

  5. Place your potatoes on your parchment lined baking sheet. You want all the potatoes to be in a single layer. They will not crisp up if they are overlapping. 

  6. Bake in your preheated oven for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, turn your broiler on and let cook for another 4-6 minutes. Keep an eye on your wedges once you turn the broiler on since they can burn pretty quickly. You are looking for the wedges to be a nice golden-brown colour as this will ensure that they are crispy.

FOR THE CILANTRO LIME DIPPING SAUCE:

  1. While the wedges are cooking, I like to make the dipping sauce. In a high-speed blender (if you have a small jar like the Blendtec twister jar, it will work very well for this dipping sauce), place all the dipping sauce ingredients. 

  2. Blend until completely smooth. I recommend stopping the blender once or twice to scrape down the sides of the jar. If your sauce is too thick or your blender is having a hard time, you can add a teaspoon of water (one at a time) to get things moving. 

  3. Transfer the dipping sauce to a small serving dish and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.

FOR SERVING:

  1. Once the potato wedges are done baking, place them on a serving tray or simply serve them on the baking sheet which is what I like to do and serve with the dipping sauce on the side. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Soaking your cashews will help create a smoother sauce texture. There are two ways you can soak your cashews depending on the amount of time you have.

Longer method: Place your cashews in an air tight container, add water to your container until all the cashews are well submerged. Cover with the lid and let sit at room-temperature overnight.

Quick method: Place your cashews in a bowl. Bring water to a boil then cover your cashews with boiling water until they are well submerged. Let sit out on the counter for 1 hour.
