DEEP FRIED POTATO WEDGE RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Cut 2 pounds russet potatoes into 1/2-inch wedges (about 8 wedges per potato). Transfer to a large bowl and add enough cold tap water to cover the potatoes by 1 inch and soak for 20 minutes.
• Heat the air-fryer to 380°F.
• Drain the potatoes and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel. Wipe out the bowl, then return the potatoes to the bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil and 1 teaspoon kosher salt and toss until evenly coated. Add all potato wedges to air fryer basket in an even layer (it's OK if they stack). Air fry for 20 minutes, shaking halfway through. The potatoes will be golden in spots.
• Transfer the wedges back to the bowl. Add 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning and the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and toss until well-coated. Return to air fryer and cook, shaking halfway through, until tender inside, deep golden-brown outside, and crisp along the edges, 10 to 15 minutes more. Serve immediately with a dipping sauce of your choice.

Steps:

• Warm the seafood stock and set aside. In a large, heavy, lidded pot, warm up the roux over medium heat, stirring constantly. If you haven't already, add the onion, celery and bell pepper to the roux and cook for about 3-4 minutes or until vegetables have softened. Add the garlic and cook another minute.
• Using kitchen shears, chop the tomatoes in the can, and add to the roux and veggies. Add the Rotel tomatoes. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes. Stir in the warmed seafood stock and add the salt, pepper, Cajun seasoning, and bring up to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about one hour, or until nicely reduced and thickened. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Add the fish (and other seafood if using) to the top of the sauce, sprinkle it with a bit of additional salt and pepper, cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until fish is poached and cooked through. Don't stir!
• Once the fish is poached through, carefully ladle the courtbouillon into a deep soup bowl, over steaming rice. Add a nice, mixed garden salad, a wedge of lemon, some fresh, hot French bread and always, hot sauce to pass at the table.
