DIRECTIONS

1.

Place potatoes in a single layer on a sheet pan that has been lined with a pan liner or sprayed with pan release spray. Do not pan more than you can serve quickly. This product may become soggy. Batch cook the french fries to maintain quality.

2.

Bake according to oven (combi or convection) and package or case directions.

CCP: Heat to 135 degrees F or higher for at least 15 seconds at the completion of the cooking process. If manufacturer instructions on the package or case have a higher temperature, follow those recommendations.

3.

Use a spatula to remove the potatoes from sheet pans and place them into half-size steamtable pans.

4.

Serve the potato wedges immediately. If that is not an option, place them under a heat lamp to keep potatoes crisp. The potato wedges may also be covered with aluminum foil and placed in the warmer. Cut holes in the aluminum foil to allow the steam to escape.

CCP: Cover and hold for service at 135 degrees F or higher. Check the temperature every 30 minutes.

5.

Measure a ½ cup serving to determine how many potato wedges to serve.
Portion each ½ cup serving with a spoon or tongs. Each portion provides ½ cup starchy vegetables.

CCP:  Hold and maintain product at a minimum temperature of 135 degrees F. Check temperature every 30 minutes. Discard any leftovers.
