Instructions
-
Prepare the Potatoes: Start by par boiling the potatoes in a pressure cooker for one whistle. Once cooked, carefully peel the skin, cut the potatoes into cubes, and set aside.
-
Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the red bell pepper yogurt dressing. Mix well and keep aside to allow the flavors to meld.
-
Cook the Potatoes: Heat sunflower oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Add the dried oregano and thyme, followed by the potato cubes. Toss the mixture well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the herbs. Season with salt and let them cook on low heat until they achieve a beautiful golden brown color, which should take about 10 minutes.
-
Warm the Tortillas: While the potatoes are cooking, warm the tortillas in a skillet. Brush them lightly with oil to prevent sticking and enhance flavor.
-
Assemble the Wraps: To create the wraps, take a warm tortilla and spread a generous layer of the red bell pepper yogurt dressing in the center. Add a portion of the spicy potato filling over the dressing. Garnish with a few fresh mint leaves for a burst of color and flavor.
-
Fold and Serve: Gently fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling to secure the contents. Serve the Spicy Potato Wraps immediately, either on their own or alongside dips like Low Fat Vegetable Dip with Herbs or Raw Mango and Spring Onion Dip for a refreshing twist.
