Ingredients

1 1/10 lb baby potatoes
1 tbsp harissa paste
3 tbsp olive oil
pickled onions
parsley

Garlicky Yogurt Sauce

1 garlic
0.5 lemon
3 tbsp Greek yogurt
to taste salt

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 392°F.
2
Par‑boil the baby potatoes in salted water for about 8‑10 minutes, until just tender but still firm; drain well.
3
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and gently smash each one with the bottom of a glass, leaving them in one piece.
4
In a small bowl, combine the heaped harissa paste with 3‑4 tbsp olive oil, mixing until smooth.
5
Drizzle the harissa‑oil mixture over the smashed potatoes, tossing gently to coat all surfaces evenly.
6
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35‑40 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the edges are golden and crisp.
7
While the potatoes roast, mince the garlic clove and combine it with the juice of half a lemon and a pinch of salt; let the mixture rest for 5 minutes.
8
Stir the rested garlic‑lemon mixture into the heaped Greek yogurt to create a smooth garlicky yogurt sauce.
9
When the potatoes are done, transfer them to a serving platter, drizzle or dollop the garlicky yogurt sauce over the top, and scatter pickled onions and chopped fresh parsley.
10
Serve immediately while the potatoes are still hot and crispy.
