Jasper Fries (Potato Wedges)

6 medium potatoes

2 T. butter, melted

2 T. oil

1 t. seasoned salt

Cut potatoes into wedges. Place butter, oil, and salt in plastic zip bag. Add potatoes and shake to coat. Place in single layer on greased baking sheet. Bake at 450 for 30-45 minutes or until tender and golden.

Note: I balance the wedges with the skin side down and pointed edge up so I don't have to turn them over half way through cooking.

1 onion, finely diced

1 egg

1/2 t. pepper

1/2 t. salt

Mix potatoes, flour, onion, egg, pepper, and salt in a bowl until batter consistency. I had to add a little milk and the batter was still very thick. Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Drop circles of batter into hot oil. Cook until golden brown on each side. Set on paper towel. Garnish with chives, if desired.
