Ingredients

Potatoes

1¼ kilo Potatoes, peeled and chopped
½ tsp Turmeric
Olive oil
½ tsp Smoked paprika
4 Garlic cloves, finely chopped

Yogurt base

1 handful Coriander, roughly chopped
1 Lemon, zested and juiced
Salt and pepper

Garnish

2 tsp Chilli oil
1 tbsp Parsley, roughly chopped
1 Green chili, de-seeded and finely chopped

Instructions

potatoes

  • Chop your potatoes into equal pieces, around 4-5cm. Add to a large lidded saucepan and cover with cold water. Add in the turmeric and a pinch of salt, cover with the lid and bring the pan to a boil over a high heat. Once boiling, simmer for 3 minutes.
  • While your potatoes boil, pre-heat your oven to 180ºC fan. Take a large roasting tray and drizzle with enough olive oil to just cover the bottom surface (usually around 4-5 tbsp depending on the size of your tray).
  • Once your potatoes are cooked, drain, return to the pan, hold the lid firmly in place and shake the pan a few times to rough up the potato edges, being careful not to break them up too much. Remove the lid, and while the potatoes dry out a little, place the oiled tray in the oven to pre-heat for 10 minutes.
  • Once pre-heated, carefully add the potatoes to the tray and sprinkle over the smoked paprika. Roast for 50 minutes, turning the potatoes over halfway through (the bottom surface of the potatoes should be golden).
  • Once roasted, remove the tray, turn the potatoes once more and sprinkle with the garlic. Roast for a final 5-7 minutes until the garlic is golden.

Yogurt base

  • While the potatoes roast, add the Greek Style yogurt, half the fresh coriander, half the lemon zest, 1 tbsp lemon juice and salt and pepper to a bowl and mix.
  • To serve, take a large plate, spread the yogurt mix over the base, pile your potatoes in the middle and sprinkle over the chilli crisp in oil. Finish with the parsley, green chilli and the remaining coriander and lemon zest.

Recipe tips

It’s often the small details that make the biggest impact in the kitchen, so we’re sharing the tips we rely on when cooking and creating recipes

The reason for roughing up your potatoes before roasting is to create a more absorbent surface to soak up the oil. This means once your potatoes are roasted, you’ll have potatoes with fluffy insides and deliciously crispy outsides.

FAQ: Questions about Lactose-Free Chilli-Garlic Yogurt Potatoes

Ready to make your dinner a delight? Read up on these commonly asked questions to make sure you’re prepared to dive right into this recipe.

What can I substitute for chilli crisp in oil?

You can make your own chilli crisp by combining 1 tbsp of olive oil with 1-2 tsps of dried chilli flakes and a couple of minced garlic cloves. Or, for a quicker fix, just drizzle over your favourite chilli-based sauce.

Can this be made ahead of time?

This is best made just before serving to ensure the potatoes stay crisp and fluffy. However, you can pre-make the yogurt base and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Cooking low and slow

Cooked low and slow, these roast potatoes come out of the oven with the perfect balance of soft, fluffy insides and crisp outsides. It all starts with the quick boil before roasting, which kicks off the cooking process and gets the insides on their way to becoming that perfectly soft texture. Then, with a little roughing up, the outsides are primed to soak up the oil for the ideal flavour and crispness. And finally, it’s time to cook. Although potatoes can be cooked more quickly, this method ensures foolproof potatoes every time, ready to serve up as a delicious side to any dish.
