Photo: Fried Potatoes with Coriander Cayenne Mayonnaise Recipe
Ingredients
For the mayonnaise:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Couple pinches salt
- About 20 grinds black pepper
For the potatoes:
- 2 cups vegetable oil, preferably canola or safflower
- 4 russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch thick wedges
- Salt
- Chopped fresh parsley leaves, for garnish
Directions
Make the mayonnaise by whisking together all the ingredients until fully incorporated. Transfer to a small serving bowl and serve as a side with the fried potatoes.
Heat the oil over high heat in a large, heavy pot, such as a Dutch oven, until it reaches 375 degrees F. Carefully drop half of the potatoes into the hot oil and cook until nicely golden brown, about 8 minutes. Remove potatoes with a slotted metal spoon onto a plate lined with a double layer of paper towels. Season generously with salt and sprinkle with parsley. Serve the first batch and repeat the frying process for the second batch.

I'm the cook in our family and my wife is allergic to a variety of foods, especially onion. This precludes her being able to eat ketchup with any potatoes or fried foods.
I only made the mayo from this recipe. We had BBQ'd a couple of ribeyes one night and I served them with salad and tater tots. I thought I'd try the mayo as a condiment for the tots and it worked out very well. It's now a staple in our house.
Great idea, Dave.
