Notes
Chilli-honey potatoes done – it´s easy as that!. What do you think? That wasn’t hard! . What about the taste? Aren’t they great and super delicious? We personally think that this level of spiciness is just perfect. However if you find it very light, don’t think it twice. Duplicate or triplicate the amount o chilly depending on your preference.
Our Conclusion about Chilli Honey Potatoes
To conclude we have to leave our final thoughts. We absolutely love this recipe. It’s super easy to make, delicious and a perect match for a cold beer. Despite of not being original french fries this recipe doesn’t have anything to envy. They have their own personality and they are unique.
In case you are not a fan of spicy food, you can use sweet red paprika powder – it will still come good – honey sweet & crunchy with some toasted sesame seeds on the top.
