Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 small Corn tortillas
- 1 large Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 cup Shredded lettuce
- 0.5 cup Diced tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Diced red onion
- 2 tablespoons Hot sauce
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes. Rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potatoes to the skillet and sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over them. Toss to coat the potatoes in the spices.
Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are crispy and golden brown on the outside and tender on the inside. Remove from heat.
While the potatoes cook, prepare the avocado sauce. In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, lime juice, cilantro, water, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, if the sauce is too thick.
Warm the tortillas by heating them in a dry skillet for 15-20 seconds on each side or by microwaving them wrapped in a damp paper towel for about 20 seconds.
Assemble the tacos by placing a handful of crispy potatoes onto the center of each warm tortilla.
Top the potatoes with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and red onion.
Drizzle the avocado sauce and hot sauce over the toppings.
Serve immediately and enjoy your soy-free spicy potato soft tacos!
