Potatoes

Aioli

Method

Potatoes

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1 inch in size.

  2. 2

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the potato cubes in batches to avoid overcrowding.

  3. 3

    Season the Potatoes

    Fry the potatoes for about 6-8 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove the potatoes with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels. Immediately season with paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Aioli

  1. 4

    Prepare the Aioli

    In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, minced garlic (use a garlic press or finely chop), lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and salt.

  2. 5

    Mix the Aioli

    Whisk together until smooth and creamy. Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more cayenne pepper if you prefer it spicier.
