Oven Baked Steak Fries and Fry Sauce

So I'm on this "fry" kick - and these were um - amazing!!  It was seriously something like you get in the restaurant, only I MADE THEM!!  hehe  They still are potatoes BUT at least they are baked and not fried - so a little more healthy.  Yeah the fry sauce uses real mayo - but hey, it's all about "dipping moderation" :)  This goes good with any dish that teams with fries....we made this with Juicy Lucy's!
Serves 4-6 - Our Best Bites Cookbook
Ingredients:
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoon olive oil
4 medium russet potatoes, washed

**or another variation of spices - substitute 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 2 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt, and 1/4 teaspoon parsley for the spices listed above**

Fry Sauce:
1/4 cup real mayo (no miracle whip!)
1/4 cup ketchup
2-3 teaspoons dill pickle relish

Preheat oven to 400.  Mix spices in a medium bowl.  Add olive oil and combine well.

Cut the potatoes into 8 wedges each.  Add potato wedge to seasonings and toss to coat.

Lightly crumble some foil and place it on a baking sheet.  Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray and then arrange potato wedges on foil.  This makes clean up easy because your potatoes won't stick, and it also ensures that they're cooked evenly.

Bake for about 40 minutes.  Then whisk fry sauce ingredients together and serve with fries.
