Mustard Roasted Potatoes
We first started making a version of this tasty potato dish when we were graduate students and eating "healthy". The recipe comes from Oprah's chef at the time, Rosie Daley. Nowadays, we add a little oil and use sliced potatoes instead of small whole potatoes. They are crunchy and flavorful on the outside and warm and creamy on the inside. Originally served as part of A Mustard Theme.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces 4 red bliss potatoes (scrubbed)
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon ancho chile powder
- sprinkle cayenne
- salt & pepper
Instructions
We start by pre-heating the oven to 425° and getting a large cookie sheet ready covered with parchment paper. We mix the oil, mustard, paprika, cumin, and chile powder in a large bowl. Next, we slice the cleaned potatoes 1/3 inch thick or so and toss them in the bowl with our clean hands. It is messy and we try and coat all the potatoes evenly. We spread them in one layer on the parchment paper and clean our hands. We sprinkle with cayenne, salt and pepper and put in the pre-heated oven.
We cook for twenty minutes and then flip each potato slice with tongs. We cook for another twenty minutes until tender and browned.
