Potato Tandoori Bites
Spicy roasted potato bites coated in a tangy yogurt and tandoori spice marinade for a smoky Indian-inspired appetizer.
Potato Tandoori Bites are a flavorful vegetarian appetizer inspired by classic tandoori cooking. Parboiled baby potatoes are coated in a thick yogurt marinade flavored with ginger, garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika and garam masala, then roasted at high heat until lightly charred around the edges. The result is smoky, tangy and warmly spiced. These bites are perfect for parties or as a starter with mint chutney. Using thick yogurt keeps the marinade clinging to the potatoes, while a hot oven creates the characteristic roasted finish.
