Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and scrub potatoes thoroughly, then cut each into 6-8 wedges depending on size.
  3. Place potato wedges in large bowl and drizzle with olive oil, tossing to coat evenly.
  4. Combine all seasonings in small bowl, then sprinkle over oiled wedges and toss thoroughly.
  5. Arrange seasoned wedges on baking sheet in single layer without overlapping.
  6. Roast for 35-40 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Meanwhile, combine all dip ingredients in medium bowl and mix thoroughly.
  8. Refrigerate dip for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  9. Serve hot crispy wedges immediately with chilled cucumber dip.

Notes

For extra crispiness, soak cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before seasoning. Dip can be made up to 24 hours ahead. Store leftover dip refrigerated for up to 3 days.
