- Cook the wedges on the grill for about 10 mins, turning once until they are golden.
- To make the dip: Crumble the cheese into a bowl and then beat in the crème fraîche. Stir in the chives and season well with pepper. Keep the dip chilled until ready to serve. Stir the dip just before serving, and garnish with some snipped chives.
- Serve the dip in a small bowl on a plate with the chips around it.
