Ingredients & Substitutions
Yukon Gold potatoes are perfect for this dish because they’re creamy and flavorful. If you want a different flavor, you could use sweet potatoes! For the mayo, I love using a store-bought vegan mayo, but if you’re feeling adventurous, you can make your own with soaked cashews, lemon juice, and a bit of garlic.
Tips & Notes
- •I love to double the sauce for extra drizzling—it's that good!
- •If you want to prep ahead, you can cut the potatoes and toss them in oil and spices the night before.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I add a splash of sriracha to the sauce for a little kick!
- •You can swap out the smoked paprika for regular paprika or even chipotle powder for a different flavor profile.
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to get them crispy again!
Frequently Asked Questions
