Ingredients
  

Potatoes
  • 1.5 kg Sebago potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
Glaze
  • 20 g butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 125 ml honey (1/2 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 tbsp sriracha chilli sauce
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp MasterFoods Chilli Finely Chopped
  • Sea salt flakes to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees C (or 160 degrees C if you’re using a fan-forced oven).
  2. In a good-sized pot, place the potato chunks in cold water and set it on high heat to bring to a boil. Let them boil for about 5 to 8 minutes, just until they tenderize a little but aren’t falling apart. Then, drain them well.
  3. Return the drained potatoes back to the pot and shake them over low heat for a good 30 seconds to create delicious rough edges.
  4. Let them cool for about 10 minutes.
  5. While your potatoes are cooling, mix together the melted butter and olive oil in a jug.
  6. Lay your potatoes in a single layer in a roasting pan and drizzle that buttery goodness over them. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Roasting
  1. Roast the potatoes in the oven for about 50 minutes, or until they turn a lovely golden color.
  2. In the meantime, combine the honey, crushed garlic, sriracha, apple cider vinegar, and finely chopped chili in a separate jug. Give it a good stir.
  3. Once the potatoes are beautifully roasted, pour the honey mixture over them, turning to coat every single chunk.
  4. Pop them back in the oven, turning halfway through for another 15 minutes, until they’re glossy and sticky.
Serving
  1. Serve warm and enjoy with friends and family!

Notes

For the ultimate texture, ensure that you shake the potatoes after boiling to roughen the edges—this will help them crisp up beautifully during roasting. Feel free to adjust the sriracha based on your spice tolerance. Start with a little and add more if you like a kick! Don't rush the roasting—give them that full 50 minutes to develop the perfect golden hue. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days and reheated in the oven.
