The difference between fries and wedges is the way you cut them and also in fries we remove the skin, while in wedges we retain them. So after cutting the potatoes in your desired shape, boil them in salt water. Grind some cumin seeds, black peppercorns, red chilli and sea salt. Sprinkle the mixture to the boiled potatoes and mix. Add some refined flour and sprinkle a little water and mix.  Heat oil in a pan and deep fry the wedges, till golden and crisp. Garnish with grated cheese and coriander.
