Roast potatoes with bacon & avocado is a delicious and simple dish that combines the crispiness of roasted potatoes with the savory flavor of bacon, topped with creamy avocado. This recipe is perfect for a hearty meal that is both satisfying and easy to prepare.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly and dry them with a kitchen towel.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized chunks (around 1 to 1.5 inches).
- Place the potato chunks in a large bowl and toss them with a generous pinch of salt and pepper.
- While the oven is preheating, cook the bacon strips in a frying pan over medium heat until crispy. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes.
- Once cooked, place the bacon on a paper towel to drain excess fat and cool down. Once cool, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
- Place the seasoned potato chunks on a baking sheet in a single layer.
- Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.
- While the potatoes are roasting, halve the avocado and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh and cut it into small cubes.
- Once the potatoes are done, take them out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- In a large serving bowl, combine the roasted potatoes, crumbled bacon, and avocado cubes.
- Toss everything gently to combine. Add more salt and pepper if needed.
- Transfer the potato mixture to a serving platter.
- Garnish with a fresh herbs if desired.
Tips:
- For extra crispy potatoes, make sure to parboil them before roasting.
- Arrange the bacon strips on a separate baking sheet to allow them to cook evenly and become crispy.
- Season the potatoes generously with salt and pepper to enhance their flavor.
- Add the avocado just before serving to keep it fresh and vibrant.
- Feel free to sprinkle some fresh herbs like parsley or chives for an extra layer of flavor.
Enjoy your perfectly roasted potatoes with bacon & avocado. This dish is a crowd-pleaser and can be served as a main course or a tasty side dish. The combination of textures and flavors makes it a delightful treat that everyone will love.
