Ingredients
Scale
For the Crispy Potato Bites:
- 2 pounds baby potatoes (or small potatoes), cut into bite-sized cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)
For the Herb Yogurt Sauce:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or regular yogurt)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and dry the potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized cubes or wedges.
- Place the potato pieces on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
- Sprinkle the potatoes with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, and toss again to evenly distribute the spices.
Step 2: Bake the Potatoes
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they aren’t crowded (this will help them get crispy).
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Step 3: Prepare the Herb Yogurt Sauce
- While the potatoes are baking, prepare the herb yogurt sauce.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic powder, fresh dill, fresh parsley, salt, and pepper.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add more lemon juice for extra tang or more herbs for a stronger flavor.
Step 4: Serve
- Once the potatoes are out of the oven, let them cool for a couple of minutes.
- Serve the crispy potato bites hot with the herb yogurt sauce on the side for dipping.
- Garnish the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and extra freshness.
Notes
- Cut Evenly: Make sure the potato pieces are cut into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
- Don’t Overcrowd: Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the baking sheet to get them crispy. Overcrowding will result in soggy potatoes.
- Use Parchment Paper: For easy cleanup, line your baking sheet with parchment paper. It also helps to prevent sticking.
- Sauce Variations: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the sauce for a spicy kick or use Greek yogurt with honey for a sweeter version.
