Harissa, a spicy sauce popular in northern Africa, gives these potatoes a bit of a punch. I found Harissa with the ethnic items at Whole Foods, but you can also get it at African specialty markets or make your own with Harissa.
Ingredients:
1 lb baking potato
1 1/2 teaspoons harissa
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
1 -2 tablespoon sesame seeds
1/2-1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon flaked sea salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Peel potatoes and cut into large chunks. In small bowl, combine harissa, olive oil, salt, and sesame seeds.
3. Toss potatoes with with harissa mixture until evenly coated.
4. Spray baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray (or line with non-stick foil).
5. Arrange potatoes in single layer on baking sheet.
6. Bake 20-25 minutes, turn, and bake 15-20 minutes until potatoes tender and lightly browned.
7. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over potatoes and sprinkle with flaked sea salt.
