These wonderful wedges are just like they make 'em at KFC, but better since you'll have them super fresh. A blend of herbs and spices gives them a tasty, spicy coating and brings out the yum factor.

ingredients

1/2 tablespoon MSG
1/2 tablespoon onion powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 tablespoon dried oregano
2 chicken bouillon cubes, crushed
1 large egg
2 tablespoons milk
3 small potatoes, peeled if desired

directions

Combine the MSG, onion powder, flour, salt, cayenne, black pepper, oregano, and crushed bouillon cubes in a bowl and mix well.

In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until combined.

Cut the potatoes into wedges.

Heat 1-inch of oil in a deep skillet to 400 degrees F (you can also use a deep fryer).

Dip the potato wedges first into the egg coating, turning to coat it on all sides. Let any excess egg mixture drip off. Next, dredge the potato wedges in the spice mixture, coating well and shaking off any excess.

Add the potato wedges to the hot oil (in batches as needed) and fry until golden brown, turning the wedges so they brown on all sides.

Remove the potato wedges from the hot oil with a slotted spoon or tongs and let drain on paper toweling. Serve the seasoned potato wedges hot.
