They look so crisp! Great with my favourite aioli 🙂
They look delicious and I admire your willingness to make this effort for a little snack for you and the kids.
I could seriously spend all day snacking on a pan of these.
Sounds like something I’m going to have to try.
These potatoes look wonderful.
I think the ingredients for the aioli might be incorrect? Is it supposed to be 1-2 tsp of lemon juice instead of soy sauce? Sounds yummy though, thanks for the inspiration!
Christina,
Yes!!! Thank you so much for letting me know. I’ve corrected the recipe.
