Prep:30minCook:12min
“Batata Harra” literally translates to spicy potatoes, but they ain’t your regular spicy potatoes, these are on another level of deliciousness!
This dish is very popular in all middle eastern restaurants, but I promise you will never order them again after making them at home using this recipe! They’re crispy on the outside… soft and fluffy on the inside… coated with loads of flavour…. Just absolutely mouthwatering!
