Ingredients:
5 lb. bag of potatoes - peeled and sliced in wedges
8 oz. of Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese - grated
Pat dry the potatoes and place in a bowl.
Rub for Fries:
½ tsp. ground cumin
 ½ tsp. black pepper

½ tsp. garlic powder
½ tsp. ground curry powder
¼ tsp. chili powder
¼ tsp. salt
Olive oil to make a paste
Preheat Oven 350 degrees:
Combine all of the spices in a small bowl and drizzle olive oil to make a paste from the rub.
Place the rub in with the potatoes and toss the potatoes so each potato wedge is coated.
Drizzle a baking pan with olive oil and place the potatoes in the pan.
Bake 40-45 minutes until the potatoes are golden.
Remove the potatoes to a platter and scatter the grated cheese on the potatoes while they are hot.

2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar

    The wedges sound great Catherine but i think for that little added extra i would leave the skins on. Not sure on the sauce though...I've never had 'cilantro'. Maybe I should see if I can grow it next year!

    Catherine... These steak fried with the dipping sauce look both decadent and irresistable! We will whip up a batch of these...maybe paired with a couple of nice pork chops or ribeyes! Thanks and Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
