Crispy and Spicy Baked Potatoes

Author: Juli

Ingredients

  • 500 g potatoes
  • 1 1/2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1/2 tsp of salt
  • 1/2 tsp of pepper
  • 1 tsp bell pepper powder
  • 1 tsp tandoori masala
  • 1 tsp hot sauce - I love Nando's Garlic and Herb but Sriracha works fine as well
  • a medium to large plastic bag

Instructions

  • Melt the coconut butter in a small bowl
  • Add all the spices and hot sauce and stir until everything is incorporated
  • Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut in halves
  • Give the spice mixture and potatoes into the bag, seal it and shake until the potato halves are all well covered with the oil mixture
  • Give the potatoes cut side down on a baking tin lined with baking parchment
  • Bake in the oven at 180°C for 35-40 min depending on the size of the potatoes

Notes

The more oil you use, the crispier they get
Make sure to drizzle the rest of the spice-oil mix out of the bag onto the potatoes
For all of you who don't eat white potatoes, it works well with sweetpotatoes as well. Just remove the skin and cut into chunks before covering with the oil. BUT it's not as nice as with white potatoes. A bit strange for the HLB world but not for me. And definitely good!
