Sumac Spiced Potato Wedges

A recipe i have adapted quite substantially to suit my taste preferences from one i found in the australian women's weekly's 'cafe food'. The original recipe had chilli powder - which i never include, having zero tolerance of anything hot and spicy - but i've included it below as an optional ingredient as i'm aware that many people just love it. i've also added cumin, garlic, lemon zest and the option of adding salt and freshly ground black pepper. don't include lemon zest if you don't like lemons or any of the optional ingredients if you don't like them! the original recipe suggested serving these wedges with tomato relish. when i've made them, we've enjoyed them with either deli tzatziki, kittencal's recipe #157176 or ravenseyes’ recipe #306901. the original recipe specified cooking these wedges in a very hot oven for 40 minutes; i've found that these wedges were done in a hot (not a very hot) oven after 40 minutes. cooking times will vary, of course, depending on the size yo
