  • 1 bay leaf
  • 0.5 tsp red chilli powder

To bake the potatoes
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp bayou black seasoning (substitute with any cajun seasoning)
  • 0.125 tsp garlic powder

For the sauce
  • 0.5 cup mayonnaise (substitute with vegan mayo)
  • 0.5 tsp bayou black seasoning (substitute with any cajun seasoning)
  • 0.25 tsp garlic powder
  • a pinch of salt, to taste

Method
 

Boil the potatoes
  1. Place the chopped potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl and pour water just enough to completely immerse it. Add a bay leaf, red chilli powder, garlic powder and a bit of salt and microwave until a fork or a tooth-pick goes through without any effort.
  2. Once the potatoes are cooked, drain the water and discard bay leaf. Run through cold water to prevent over cooking as it sits.
Now we bake!
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F/220°C. Line a medium baking tray with foil.
  2. Toss the drained and cooked potatoes in vegetable oil, cajun seasoning, garlic powder and a pinch of fried red chilli flakes and salt. Make sure the potatoes are compeltely coated in the spice mix and oil.
  3. Place on the baking sheet, spaced apart and bake at 425°F/220°C for 20 minutes.
  4. Serve hot with the garlic sauce below!
Make the sauce
  1. Simply combine all the ingredients listed under Sauce in a small bowl. Dunk the potatoes generously and enjoy!
