  5. Garnish with parsley and serve.

Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes

These wonderful mashed potatoes are inspired by the Lebanese Mediterranean style of cooking. Olive oil and yogurt provide richness and complexity, instead of the usual butter and sour cream. Choose a mild olive oil. Yukon gold potatoes really shine in this recipe! Garlic cloves cook in the pot along with buttery potatoes, mashing up beautifully for yet another savory layer of flavor.

Batata Harra

These Lebanese spicy potatoes are an obsession! Traditionally deep-fried, we achieve wonderful results roasting the potatoes to a beautiful golden brown. Your choice of potato can vary however your tastes may dictate! I love russet potatoes for this dish for their delicate flavor and fluffy texture. They are also often quite large, which make it easier to peel them and cut even cubes.
