# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Wash and chop potatoes into 1.25 cm cubes. Place in a bowl, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Add seasonings (salt, oregano, garlic powder, paprika) and toss until evenly coated.
02 -
Spread potatoes on a baking sheet and bake at 200°C for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, air fry at 200°C for 20-25 minutes.
03 -
While potatoes cook, dice tomato, jalapeño, and half the red onion. Combine in a bowl with chopped cilantro. Squeeze lime juice over mixture and season with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
04 -
In a medium skillet, brown ground beef over medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes. Season with creole seasoning, cumin, coriander, onion powder, garlic powder, crushed red pepper, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Optional: add remaining diced red onion for extra flavor.
05 -
Combine mayonnaise, sriracha, lemon juice, and black pepper in a small bowl until well mixed. Transfer to a piping bag or ziplock bag with corner cut for drizzling.
06 -
Divide roasted potatoes among four containers, placing them on one side. Add taco meat to the other side, top with pico de gallo, and drizzle with sriracha mayo. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
# Tips and Suggestions:
01 -
Potatoes will lose some crispiness when reheated in microwave, but flavor remains excellent.
02 -
Air frying potatoes creates a crispier texture than oven baking.
