Spicy Roasted Potatoes
This is so flavorful, it makes a nice vegetarian main course. It is also a delicious accompaniment to Roast Turkey. Use Earth Balance Buttery Sticks or Spread Soybean margarine. If dairy isn't a problem, you could
use Butter. I use about 1 1/2 tsp pepper flakes which is quite spicy.
What you need
- 2 small yukon gold potatoes
- 1 medium garnet yam
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- Olive Oil
- Soybean Margarine
- Peeled & minced fresh ginger
- Garlic, lightly crushed
- Hot red pepper flakes
- Salt & Pepper
How to make it
- Heat oil and add margarine, minced ginger, garlic and hot pepper flakes.
- Allow to simmer while preparing potatoes.
- Peel & cube potatoes. I cut them into approx. 1 1/2 inch pieces.
- Pour the seasoned oil mixture over the potatoes and add salt & pepper.
- Mix well to coat the potatoes thoroughly.
- Roast in a hot oven (375 - 400º) until caramelized on the outside and
the yukon gold & sweet potatoes are very tender. Approx 30 - 50 minutes.
The yams cook much faster than the other potatoes and will begin to mash by the
time the others are ready. I like it this way, but you could keep them separate and
add them after about 15 minutes or so.
I crush the garlic cloves lightly and remove before
pouring the oil over the potatoes.
