Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Baby potatoes
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Cumin powder
- 2 medium Ripe avocados
- 1 medium Lime
- 1 small Tomato
- 0.25 cup Red onion
- 2 tbsp Cilantro
- 1 small Jalapeño (optional)
- 0.5 tsp Salt (for guacamole)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and slice them in half.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, 1 tsp salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and cumin powder until evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer, cut side down.
Roast the potatoes in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Flip them halfway through cooking for even browning.
While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the guacamole. Scoop the flesh of the avocados into a medium bowl and mash with a fork until smooth but slightly chunky.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the mashed avocado to prevent browning.
Dice the tomato and finely chop the red onion, cilantro, and optional jalapeño. Add them to the avocado.
Season the guacamole with 0.5 tsp salt and mix well. Taste and adjust lime juice or salt as needed.
Once the potatoes are cooked, let them cool for a few minutes.
Serve the roasted potatoes warm with the guacamole on the side or spooned over the top for a fun and flavorful combination.
