Roasted Potatoes with Tahini Yogurt Sauce Cooking Guide

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for perfectly crispy potatoes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine quartered baby potatoes and sliced sweet potato. Drizzle with 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil, then sprinkle paprika, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  • Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
  • While potatoes roast, prepare the tahini yogurt sauce by combining Greek yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, 40ml olive oil, and 20-30ml water in a mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth, adjusting water to desired consistency.
  • Remove roasted potatoes from oven and let cool slightly. Serve topped with tahini yogurt sauce, garnished with fresh parsley, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of olive oil.
