directions

MAKE THE ROASTED GARLIC DIP:
- Preheat the oven to 400°. Place the garlic cloves in an ovenproof dish, then pour in the olive oil and toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer and roast in the preheated oven of 25 min or until tender. Remove from the oven and let stand until cool enough to handle.
- Peel the garlic cloves, then place on a heavy cutting board and sprinkle with a little salt. Mash well with a fork until smooth. Scrape into a bowl and stir in the sour cream and mayonnaise. Season to taste with salt and paprika. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let chill until ready to serve.
-
MAKE THE POTATOES:
- To cook the potatoes, cut each potato half into 3 wedges and place in a large bowl. Add the olive oil, garlic, and salt and toss well. Transfer to a roasting pan, then arrange in a single layer and roast in the preheated oven for 1-1 1/4, or until crisp and golden.
- Remove from the oven and transfer to serving bowls. Serve immediately, handing round the roasted garlic dip separately.

What a wonderful combination of flavours!!!! I loved the sweetish, roasty garlic dip with the simple salted fries and the roasted garlic pieces. YUM!!!! Perfect Potatoes indeed! I will surely make this often again as it comes together quickly and rewards you with a scrumptious meal! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your recipe with us, Julie! Made and reviewed for the Aussie/NZ Recipe Swap #42 July 2010. -
I really liked these wedges. The dip was super delicious! I made half of the recipe, since it's just DH and me. I used 2 largish potatoes, and cut a couple of the potato halves into 4ths. My oven runs hot, and since my slices were a bit thinner, my potatoes were ready in about 30 minutes. With half the dip there was plenty of for a couple of heavy dippers; even a little bit left over. :lol: This will be used again - thanks for the recipe! Edit 7/27 to add: The leftover dip is lovely on a baked potato! -
This is a GREAT potato dish! We just LOVED it! The dip is so tasty and perfect with these little wedges. I'm going to be making these alot. I did it exactly like the recipe says but I put the pan right in the BBQ grill with my chicken and it worked out really well. I also roasted my garlic in there with everything else. Thanks, Julie B for a KEEPER! Made for ZWT5- Family Picks for the Kitchen Witches -

These were great! DH looked at me after his first bite, and says 'I'd eat these again!' :-D I cut the recipe by 2/3's, as there are only 2 of us. And the garlic dip was so yummy! Thank's Julie B, for sharing a terrific recipe. Made for ZWT 5.
