Ingredients for Peri peri potatoes
Baby Potatoes :
Baby potatoes harvested so early, their skin is very thin and tender, often feathering or peeling off in places. New potatoes don't need to be peeled before cooking and are great roasted or boiled. They have a delicate, slightly sweet flavor and a creamy texture.
Peri-Peri Sauce :
Peri-Peri Sauce is a mix of African birds eye chilies grown primarily in Africa. Its sour, little sweet, and slightly salty, making it a nuanced and adaptable sauce that goes with
practically anything.
Mayonnaise :
Mayonnaise is made from egg yolk, vegetable oil, lemon juice and/or vinegar, mustard and salt. When you think about that ingredient list, it's obvious why mayonnaise makes food taste better: it adds fat, salt, and acidity.
