Potatoes
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold or red potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
Sriracha Mayo
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
Garnish
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Preheat and prepare potatoes: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and cube the potatoes into evenly sized 1-inch pieces to ensure they cook uniformly.
- Roast the potatoes: Spread the cubed potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until the potatoes are golden and crispy on the outside and tender inside.
- Make the sriracha mayo: While the potatoes are roasting, mix mayonnaise and sriracha in a bowl until well combined. Adjust the sriracha quantity depending on your preferred spice level.
- Combine salad ingredients: Once the potatoes are done and cooled slightly, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the sriracha mayo over the potatoes and gently toss to coat evenly.
- Add green onions and season: Stir in the thinly sliced green onions and taste, then add extra salt or pepper if needed.
- Serve: Serve the salad warm or at room temperature as a bold, flavorful side dish.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, parboil the potatoes for 5 minutes before roasting.
- If you prefer a milder salad, reduce the amount of sriracha or substitute with a milder hot sauce.
- This salad is best served within a few hours to enjoy the crisp texture of the potatoes.
- Adding fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley can enhance the flavor profile.
