These crispy potatoes take simple ingredients and transform them into an addictive, crowd-pleasing snack or side dish. Boiled until just tender, each potato wedge is dusted in cornstarch before being dipped in a seasoned batter, adding a hint of paprika, turmeric, and pepper for depth of flavor. The result is a golden, crunchy coating that locks in the potatoes’ soft interior. Serve them hot and fresh for an irresistible balance of crispiness and spice—ideal for any meal or as a standalone treat!
