Mojo Potatoes Ingredients

Method

Mojo Potatoes Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash the small potatoes thoroughly under cold running water. Pat them dry with a clean towel.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    In a large pot, fill it with water and add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil. Add the washed potatoes and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

  3. 3

    Make the Mojo Sauce

    While the potatoes are boiling, prepare the mojo sauce. In a blender, combine the olive oil, garlic cloves, fresh cilantro, lime juice, cumin, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Blend until smooth.

  4. 4

    Drain the Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and let them cool for a few minutes.

  5. 5

    Combine Potatoes and Mojo Sauce

    In a large mixing bowl, add the cooled potatoes. Pour the mojo sauce over the potatoes and toss gently until the potatoes are well coated.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the mojo potatoes to a serving dish. You can garnish with additional cilantro if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
