Crispy Mexican Ranch potato wedges with naturally browned edges served with a creamy avocado and yoghurt dip.

🥔 Crispy Mexican Ranch Potato Wedges with Avocado Dip

These thick-cut potato wedges are crisp at the edges, fluffy inside and coated with our smoky Mexican Ranch Rub. A cool avocado and yoghurt dip makes them perfect for sharing, snacking or serving beside burgers.

🥣 Ingredients

  • 1kg floury potatoes, scrubbed
  • 2 tbsp Mexican Ranch Rub
  • 3 tbsp vegetable or rapeseed oil
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 150g plain yoghurt
  • Juice of ½ lime
  • Pinch of salt, for the dip

⏱ Timings

  • Preparation: 15 minutes
  • Cooking: 40–45 minutes
  • Serves: 4–6

🍳 How to Make Mexican Ranch Potato Wedges

  1. Preheat the oven to 210°C fan and place a large roasting tray inside to heat.
  2. Cut each potato into even wedges. Simmer in salted water for 5 minutes, then drain very well.
  3. Return the wedges to the dry saucepan and shake gently to roughen the edges.
  4. Toss with the oil, Mexican Ranch Rub and salt. Carefully spread onto the hot tray in one layer.
  5. Roast for 20 minutes, turn and roast for another 20–25 minutes until deeply golden.
  6. Blend or mash the avocado with the yoghurt, lime juice and salt. Serve immediately with the hot wedges.

🍔 Serving Suggestions

Serve with burgers, grilled chicken or a large salad. They are also brilliant on a sharing board with salsa and crunchy vegetables.

✨ Why This Recipe Works

Brief parboiling cooks the centres and roughens the surface, creating more crisp edges. A preheated tray starts browning immediately rather than allowing the wedges to steam.
