Batata Harra (Spicy Potatoes)

I swapped for sweet potato instead. And im pleasantly surprised.

Lovely

Whoooo boy! When they say spicy, they mean SPICY! If you have gastrointestinal issues, you may want to skip this one!

Spicy in a good way. The tomato paste is too thick with just lemon juice so I added some water to thin it out enough to cover the potatoes.

SO good!

Did not add anything spicy, which was our preference. Placed leftovers in an egg dish. It was good!

It's very tasty but spicy but not overpowering. I had it with a fried egg as someone suggested

Topped with a fried egg

I would substitute paprika for half of the cayenne to tone it down a bit

The recipe can be spicy like others said, but I don't think it's something that cannot be evident from seeing the ingredients list. If you enjoy spicy food, it's a great side dish that tastes good but doesn't burn your insides. Would recommend some less colorful food with it as a main dish like tofu or something else though so there aren't two flavours fighting together.

Add tomato paste sparingly

Added lenrils for more protein and a complete balanced meal

Very tasty I love how spicy it is

Added some small Kransky sausages, used onion flakes instead of Chilli flakes. Very tasty, potatoes took the best part of an hour to cook though, so a good idea to start cooking them early.

I found these a bit too spicy to be a side dish - they overpowered everything else. They were good, but I'd have to tone them down if I'm serving them with something flavorful.

Very delicious!

Made with a potato, courgette and sweet potato mix but took best part of an hour to roast

I used kumara (sweet potato) instead of white, and I made a bit more sauce so it wasn’t crunchy but it was delicious. Everyone loved it.

Might want to turn down the spice depending on your preference.

Very tasty! Spicy! Opted for baking the potatoes. Simple, but don't underestimate how long it takes for even small potato cubes to bake through.

I added cheese and parmesan. Instead of red pepper I used paprika

Nice to be able to find another way to use tomato paste. I omitted some of the spice for the kids and served with sour cream and chives and sauteed onion. Felt like a healthier upgrade to baked potatoes, if more work. Would make again

I added turmeric powder and did half the amount of the spices.

Delicious interesting dish! I substituted paprika as my son can't handle spicy food and it was still very tasty. Went well with my lamb steaks.

It’s easy to make and it’s really good. It was lemony, tangy, and a little spicy. For the cilantro lover like me, I used a little extra and it was amazing. Another modification was that I used chili powder instead of cayenne BecauseI didn’t have. I will be doing this again. I paired it with some Brussels sprouts.

It was ok. Not a fav. But not bad.

It’s intended as a side dish with 6 servings but I serve it as a main for 2

What a fantastic recipe!! So easy yet so delicious. This will be a new staple for me. I added garlic paste to the sauce, and topped with chives/sour cream.

Might have used a bit more chilli than I needed to answer I'm still breathing fire, but it was pretty great.

Really tasty side dish! We tweaked the recipe slightly by par boiling the potatoes and adding a little paprika and baby spinach towards the end of the cooking time, but it was enjoyed all round and will make again.

My whole family is getting sick of how often I make this. It's been a week and I've made it at least 5 times. I can't stop. It's too good. Help.

I love this...we add various roasted veggies with the potatoes. I always make a vinegrette slaw as the side dish that we eat with. it's fiery hot and the slaw cools it.

I used sweet paprika only and skipped the cilantro/parsley and it still tastes really good.

My son loved these but they were too spicy for me following the recipe, will cut back on the spices next time. Yummy.

I loved loved loved this! I paired it with chicken and it was a perfect work day dinner!

These are permanently in my rotation! They go amazingly with grilled chicken tikka, or similar flavors, and I serve them with a homemade sauce made out of Greek yogurt, lemon, minced garlic, ketchup, and salt and pepper. The name means "hot potatoes" and they live up to it! Would recommend trying them with a little less of the spices at first, especially if you aren't making 3 LBS!
