Crispy and Spicy Harissa Potatoes with Yogurt
Potatoes:
-
1 + ½ lbs. baby Yukon Gold potatoes
-
1 Tbsp kosher salt
Harissa Sauce:
-
2 Tbsp harissa
-
3 Tbsp olive oil
-
1 Tbsp honey
-
2 garlic cloves (minced)
Herb Topping and Yogurt:
-
2 Tbsp finely chopped red onion
-
5 Tbsp finely chopped pistachios
-
3 Tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley
-
1 Tbsp chopped oregano
-
1 + ¼ cups yogurt
-
Heat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with nonstick aluminum foil.
-
In a medium saucepan, cover the potatoes with water and add salt. Bring them to a simmer and cook until they’re just tender — 10-12 minutes. Drain the pan and set them aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the harissa, oil, honey, and garlic together.
-
Once the potatoes are cool, cut each of them into 2-inch pieces. Transfer them to a mixing bowl with the harissa mixture and toss them to coat. Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking sheet and roast them until they’re crispy and golden, 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway.
-
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the red onion, pistachios, parsley, and oregano.
-
When you’re ready to serve them, spoon the yogurt on a serving platter and top it with potatoes. Sprinkle some of the herb mixture and serve the extra on the side.
