Spicy garlic-smashed potatoes with spicy red pepper aioli (Batata harra) from Arabiyya: Recipes from the Life of an Arab in Diaspora (page 157) by Reem Assil

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute this book's "Spicy red pepper paste (Dibs al fleifleh)" for commercial harissa paste, and this book's "Chile-spice mix (Khalta harra)" for Aleppo pepper.

    Used Eric Kim’s method for smashed potatoes instead of deep-frying. Instead of full homemade aioli, started with kewpie and added the rest of the ingredients. Delish!!
