Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs yellow baby potatoes
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp voodoo seasoning or to taste
  • 1 tbsp sriracha
  • 1 red chili pepper diced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • shredded parmesan cheese for topping
  • chives for garnishing

Instructions

  • Bring water to a boil in a large pot and add salt.
  • Once the water comes to a rolling boil, add the baby potatoes and cook for 15-20 minutes or until fork tender.
  • Drain the potatoes and transfer to a bowl.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Add chopped red chili pepper, minced garlic, olive oil, sriracha and voodoo seasoning to the potatoes and toss to coat.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a parchment paper lined baking sheet and smash them using the bottom of a cup. It's best to wait for the potatoes to cool down before smashing so they don't stick to the bottom of the cup.
  • Top the potatoes with the remaining seasoning mixture and transfer to the oven. Bake at 400 degrees F for 35-40 minutes or until golden and crispy.
  • Immediately top with shredded parmesan cheese and chives and serve with a side of sriracha mayo if desired.

Notes

  • Make sure you wait a bit for the potatoes to cool down before smashing them so they don't stick to the bottom of the cup.
  • You'll know the potatoes are ready when they are golden and crispy.
  • You can make the voodoo seasoning from scratch with this recipe or buy it here.
