SPICE-CRUSTED ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Lightly crush coriander and cumin seeds with the mortar and pestle. Transfer to a large skillet, add oil and cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add chile flakes and cook until the spices smell toasty, 5 to 10 seconds. Remove from heat and add potatoes. Gently stir to coat, then gradually stir in the pepper mixture. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, spreading the potatoes in an even layer.
• Roast the potatoes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Gently stir in herbs. Serve immediately.

CRISPY CHIPOTLE ROASTED SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a medium saucepan. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Boil potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes or until cooked through. Drain potatoes and cool for 10 minutes or until cool enough to handle. Position oven rack in the lower third of the oven.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange potatoes on baking sheet about 3-inch apart. Using a spatula, smash each potato to about 1/2-inch thickness. Press together if they fall apart. Combine oil and chipotles in an electric blender; puree for 1 minute or until smooth. Drizzle the oil mixture over the potatoes. Gently slide or lift potatoes to ensure oil gets underneath and potatoes are coated. Roast potatoes for 30 to 40 minutes or until deep brown and crisp. Remove from oven and serve immediately.

CHIPOTLE POTATOES

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes clean, no need to peel. Then cut them up into 5cm/2" cubes.
• Bring a large saucepan of water to boil, and add the salt. When boiling, drop the potatoes in and bring back to a boil. Lower heat to medium-low and cook for 10-15 minutes.Check at 10 minutes. If your knife glides right through, they are done. You don't want the potatoes breaking up at all. Drain, and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Drop in the drained potatoes and sautè for 2-3 minutes to get a charred colour and flavour. Flip the potatoes to brown all over as much as possible. Don't worry about uncharred sides. The idea in this step is to brown the potatoes before we add the chipotle paste.
• Add the chipotle paste and stir the paste in, flipping the potatoes to coat all the cubes. You only need to do this for about a minute, to heat the paste through and to coat the spuds.
• Turn the heat off and squeeze the lime juice all over. Sprinkle the coriander leaves, if using. I don't always bother, preferring just the flavour of the chipotle paste and the lime juice.
