LEBANESE SPICY POTATOES (BATATA HARRA)
Absolutely brilliant combination of flavors. I made this as a side dish to a chicken meal I made. You can make this as spicy as you want it. If you can source local made red chili paste from an Asian or Middle Eastern market, go with that.

Steps:
- 1. Cube your potatoes, I used 2 1/2 medium sized potatoes for just over 3 cups.
- 2. Bring a pot of water to a boil, the potatoes the potatoes and boil for 10 minutes with 1 teaspoon of salt added. Remove potatoes and drain.
- 3. Prep the other ingredients while the potatoes are boiling. Shown here my garlic, cilantro, chili paste (one 1 teaspoon of that was used, a small bag lasts a while), and the lime juice. I use lime juice as it is everywhere, lemon juice on the other hand is not that easy to find, they can be used interchangeably.
- 4. Take drained potatoes and fry in oil, drain potatoes on paper towels. (I actually forgot this step but the potatoes turned out perfect.)
- 5. Heat olive oil in a non stick, large skillet, add garlic and chili paste, cook for just a minute or then add cilantro and lemon (lime) juice, cook for a few minutes.
- 6. Add the potatoes. The potatoes will cook through and the liquid will be absorbed.
- 7. Cook until starting to browned, when the liquid is absorbed, the potatoes will be tender. Ready to serve. This is an excellent side dish.
