ROASTED POTATOES WITH PAPRIKA MAYO

 Roasted Potatoes with Paprika Mayo

INGREDIENTS

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 lb(s) red potatoes, cut into 1/2" cubes

2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

1 cup mayonnaise

¼ cup white vinegar

1 Tbsp paprika

2 tsp sugar

1 ½ shallots, finely chopped

Chopped chives, for garnish

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 450ºF.

2. Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil (I use about 3 tablespoons salt). Add the potatoes and cook until slightly tender, 6 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

3. Scatter the potatoes on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the melted butter and toss to coat using tongs. Roast until dark brown and crispy, 30 to 45 minutes, tossing halfway through.

4. Meanwhile, in a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, paprika, sugar and shallots.

5. When the potatoes are done roasting, toss them with half of the paprika mayonnaise (save the rest for dipping or another use). Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. Top with chives and enjoy!
