INGREDIENTS
Nutrition
* 3 lbs idaho potatoes
* 1⁄2cup canola oil
* 2 tablespoons dried ancho chile powder
* 1 tablespoon kosher salt
* 2 teaspoons ground cumin

DIRECTIONS
* Put the potatoes, unpeeled, into a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and simmer until almost tender, about 15-20 minutes. Do not overcook, or they will fall apart and you won't be able to cut them into fries.
* Drain and dry the potatoes and allow to cool enough to handle.
* Carefully cut each potato lengthwise into about 6 wedges. (Original recipe said 4 wedges, but those are too thick in my opinion.) You do have to be careful, since they are already cooked, that they could crumble or fall apart.
* Place the wedges on a baking sheet and brush both sides of the potatoes with oil.
* In a small bowl combine chili powder, salt and cumin. Sprinkle over the potatoes.
* Grill the potato wedges for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden brown.

Personal Notes:
Instead of the chilli powder, one could use seasoned salt, 1tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp black pepper etc. If you need color add a pinch turmeric also.
