Bacon wrapped Potato Wedges

As an excellent pork-free alternative, smoked chicken bacon like strips, available at supermarkets, can be used. Bacon and potato will always be a classic culinary combination.
Bacon wrapped Potato Wedges

You Will Need:

Main Dish
  • 4 - 5 medium/large potatoes, washed but unpeeled
  • Ina Paarman's Potato Spice
  • olive oil
  • ± 250 g smoked rindless streaky bacon
  • snipped chives to garnish

Ina’s Tip

Oven temperature is not important, if your oven is already set at 170 °C or 200 °C just adjust the baking time, the wedges will happily cook at a wide range of temperatures.

Method:

Adjust the oven rack to the middle position. Preheat the oven to 180 °C.

Cut the potatoes into thick wedges and steam until just done. Season with Potato Spice and toss with a generous coating of olive oil, then leave to cool to touch temperature. Roll each wedge of potato in half a strip of bacon. Place in an ovenproof dish, seam side down, and bake for about 35 minutes until bacon is crispy. Serve hot. Garnish with finely snipped chives.
