So, based on this post, I think you know that I like to dip potatoes in aioli. The problem with yesterday’s meal? You just can’t eat frites every single day. IT is a shame. They are yummy, but that wouldn’t be healthy. Plus, I think we would all get sick of them eventually. So, I came up with a way to enjoy potatoes and aioli in a slightly healthier, not fried manner.
Roasted potatoes were one of the first recipes that I made from a cookbook. I made roasted potatoes with rosemary and garlic and these teeny, tiny onions. They were good, until I made them a few times a week. These Chili Roasted Potatoes are equally as good, except they have a kick. Plus, they mix sweet potatoes with white potatoes. Then there is the chipotle aioli. Oh. My. Goodness.
For a more detailed post on making aioli, check out this one. I highly recommend this. Oh, and make a really big batch of potatoes because the leftovers are fab.
