  • Dried thyme: I have used dried thyme, feel free to use dried herbs of your choice like dried basil, oregano, or rosemary.
  • Smoked paprika: You can use hot or sweet paprika depending upon your taste preference. A combination of both can be used too. It's okay to use any other red chili powder too. Pick depending on how much heat you want to add to these roasted potatoes.

How to make these roasted potatoes spicy?

These potatoes are not very spicy, especially for Asians. So, if you love spicy food add any hot sauce or a hotter variety of red chili powder to the sauce mix.

Serving Spanish potatoes

These roasted potatoes can be served as a side dish or enjoyed as an appetizer too.

You can also stuff them in your wraps or add them to your buddha bowl.

They can also be added to a salad to make it more flavorful and filling.

Storing and reheating tips

Store the leftover Spanish potatoes in an airtight container and refrigerate. It will be fine for up to 3 days.

To reheat, microwave for about a minute or until heated evenly.

Or, spread the potatoes on a baking tray, cover with an aluminum sheet, and bake covered in a preheated oven at 200°C (or, 400°F) for around 10-15 minutes or until heated well.

Recipe tips, tricks, and variation suggestions

  • After washing the potatoes pat dry them with a clean kitchen towel to get rid of the excess moisture.
  • Cut the potatoes into equal-sized pieces for even baking.
  • You can add more herbs and seasonings of choice to the sauce. Create different versions by using different seasonings and sauces. Non-vegans may also add mayonnaise and shredded cheese to it.
  • Toss the potato cubes well i.e. until the sauce evenly coats every piece.
  • Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  • For a more refreshing and tangy taste add lemon zest and lemon juice to the sauce.
  • To get a richer tomato flavor, add 1-2 tablespoons of tomato paste.
  • Don't skip smoked paprika as these potatoes get their unique taste from it. To increase the heat level of the dish, add a hot sauce of choice, hot paprika, or any other hot red chili powder.
