Steps:
- Note: If you don't have buttermilk, substitute 1 cup milk mixed with 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Let the mixture sit 15 minutes before using.
- Combine salt, pepper, onion and garlic powders, cayenne and oregano in a small bowl.
- Toss potato wedges with 4 teaspoons spice mixture and 1/4 cup oil in large microwave-safe bowl.
- Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap.
- Microwave on high until potatoes are al-dent tender but not falling apart, about 7 to 9 minutes, shaking bowl (without removing plastic)to re-distribute potatoes halfway through cooking.
- Slowly remove plastic wrap from bowl (be careful of steam) and drain potatoes.
- Arrange potatoes on rimmed baking sheet and cool until potatoes firm up, about 10 minutes.
- (Potatoes can be held at this juncture, at room temperature for up to 2 hours.).
- Heat remaining 3 quarts of oil to 340 degrees in deep fryer or Dutch oven.
- Meanwhile, combine flour and cornstarch in medium bowl.
- Whisk buttermilk and baking soda in large bowl.
- Working in two batches, dredge potato wedges in flour mixture, shaking off excess.
- Dip in buttermilk mixture, allowing excess to drip back into bowl, then coat again in flour mixture.
- Shake off excess and place on wire rack.
- (Potatoes can be coated up to 1/2 hour in advance.).
- When oil reaches 340 degrees, add half the coated wedges and fry until deep golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Transfer wedges to large bowl and toss with 1 teaspoon spice mixture.
- Drain wedges on baking sheet lined with paper towels.
- Return oil to 340 degrees and repeat with second batch of wedges.
- Serve with extra seasoning on the side, and one of my creamy dipping sauces.
