This recipe was delicious. I have a slightly similar one that uses Tabasco sauce instead of the cayenne pepper. However, the combination of the cayenne pepper and garlic cloves make this recipe more than just a cut above what I have been using. As you mentioned, this dish has a slight kick, but it wasn't so strong that my kids wouldn't eat it.

The only thing that I did differently was use freshly grated parmesan cheese. Thanks for an excellent potato recipe and hope all is well with you and your family in Europe assuming that you are still there.

6 medium potatoes
4 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons cayenne
1/4 cup parmesan cheese

Scrub potatoes, then slice lengthwise into 4 wedges. Leave skins on.

Crush garlic cloves with salt, then combine with the oil, cayenne and parmesan cheese.

Toss potato wedges in the oil mixture until evenly coated. Arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees F for 40 - 50 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and golden brown.
