Ingredients

4 potatoes
1 tsp baking soda

Sauce

1/2 cup parsley
1/2 cup cilantro
2 clove garlic
3 pickled chilis
to taste sherry vinegar
to taste salt
just enough olive oil

Instructions

1
Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.
2
Add 1 tsp baking soda and a pinch of salt to the boiling water; this helps the potatoes become fluffy on the inside.
3
Carefully drop the peeled potatoes into the water and boil for 12–15 minutes, or until a fork slides in easily but the potatoes are still firm enough to hold their shape.
4
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Using a fork or potato masher, gently mash the potatoes just enough for the outer skins to break apart into a coarse slurry; avoid turning them into a puree.
5
Season the mashed potatoes with a pinch of salt and drizzle with a light stream of olive oil; toss to coat evenly.
6
Preheat the oven to 400°F (392°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
7
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared sheet, pressing them gently so they form a flat, even layer.
8
Roast for 25 minutes, then flip the potatoes with a spatula and continue roasting for another 25–35 minutes, or until the edges are deep golden‑brown and crisp.
9
While the potatoes roast, prepare the sauce: combine parsley, cilantro, grated garlic, pickled chilis, sherry vinegar, salt to taste, and just enough olive oil in a bowl; stir until well blended.
10
When the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 2 minutes.
11
Transfer the hot potatoes to a large mixing bowl and toss them with the prepared herb‑chili sauce, ensuring every piece is evenly coated.
12
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or a splash of sherry vinegar if desired.
13
Serve immediately, garnished with an extra drizzle of olive oil or a sprinkle of fresh herbs if you like.
