Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes halved (about 700g)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional, for heat
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Halal Parmesan cheese grated
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped, for garnish
For the Optional Dipping Sauce
  • 3 tablespoons Halal mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Halal honey
  • 1 lemon juice a squeeze

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash baby potatoes, slice them in half, and pat them dry with paper towels.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, minced garlic, smoked paprika, onion powder, cayenne (if using), salt, and black pepper until smoothly emulsified.
  4. Add potato halves to the mixture and toss until every piece is generously coated.
  5. Arrange the coated potatoes on the prepared baking sheet, cut-side down, and sprinkle with grated Halal Parmesan cheese.
  6. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender with golden, crispy edges.
  7. While potatoes are baking, make the optional dipping sauce by combining Halal mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Halal honey, and lemon juice.
  8. Sprinkle fresh parsley over the hot potatoes and serve with the dipping sauce.

Notes

Pat the potatoes thoroughly dry before coating for maximum crispiness. The quality of Dijon mustard makes a big difference in flavor. For variations, try sweet potatoes or purple potatoes, or use whole grain mustard instead of Dijon. Make it vegan by substituting nutritional yeast for Parmesan. These poppers can be reheated in a hot oven to restore crispiness.
