Introduction

This recipe is roasting potatoes with spices however you could use any number of different root vegetables. These are incredibly easy to do, can be used as a tasty replacement for chips and means you don’t need to buy them from the local take away any more. These are great as a half time snack when watching the football, as an accompaniment to a BBQ or sitting next to some southern fried chicken!

The key to a good spicy potato is the spice and herbs you are using – the best mix is what you prefer, make up some different combos and give them a go, find what you like and remember it! For me its a bit of heat so I like cayenne pepper, garlic salt, onion salt, chilli powder and some pepper. 

Ingredients

  • 500g Potatoes
  • Tablespoon cayenne pepper
  • teaspoon garlic salt
  • teaspoon onion salt
  • teaspoon chilli powder
  • a couple of twists of the pepper grinder

Instructions


Peel your potatoes chop them into the size you want and bring them to the boil. Cook until the outside of the potato is soft and turn off the heat. Strain the water out and drop the potatoes into a mixing bowl. Throw in those spices and herbs with some extra virgin olive oil and give a good mix around ensuring all of the potatoes are coated.  Transfer them to a baking tray and put in a hot oven. I go for 220C as I am looking for a super crispy potato and soft centre. Once they are ready take them out and get eating!
