How can I make crispy potato wedges without frying and oven?
My mom lives Hong Kong when Toronto's cold. Here are strictures:
Healthy frying is OK. Let's rule out deep-frying - it's unhealthy and can cause cancer.
Her HK flat doesn't have a convection oven. She never bought microwave oven.
She could buy a counter-top convection toaster oven, but she feels it's too eco-unfriendly and waste of money. Let's rule it out for now.
If nobody comes up anything, she will reconsider. She has a rice cooker. Her kitchen looks like

If you want crispy potato wedges, you will need at least a tablespoon of oil and lots of heat. The supermarket offerings (oven chips etc.) have already been coated in oil even if they just require reheating.
If you are concerned about the environment and your health, your only solutions as far as I can see are either an air fryer or a Remoska. Both are very small efficient ovens, don't either require much oil, although the Remoska is much more versatile IMO.
Without concentrated heat and oil, the crispiness you seek will elude you.

You will never achieve the same results without an oven or deep-frying.
Just pan-fry the potatoes in a little bit of oil; I'd par-boil the potatoes and finish them up in the pan.
