Ingredients

• 8 Russet Potatoes

• 1 Bell Pepper, Green
• 2 pints Mushrooms, button
• 1 Onion, red or Spanish
• 2 Lemons

• 3 heads of Garlic, minced
• Salt, Fresh-ground black pepper, dried oregano (to taste)

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 425 Fahrenheit.
2. Slice potatoes into into wedges, peel on. Slice other vegetables into approximately 1/2 in x 1 in x 1 in pieces.
3. Toss in oil separately with minced garlic, rosemary, salt, pepper, and oregano.
4. Place into baking or roasting dishes, adding a half-cup of water to each batch of potatoes.
5. Roast potatoes for 30 minutes.

7. Roast an additional 30 minutes, minimum.
8. Serve to an appreciative audience.

Cooking notes

Attempt 1: Potatoes were delicious, but didn't achieve "Golden Brown and Delicious" status. Perhaps bump up to 475 next time, or bump minimum time up to 40/cycle.

Half the portions for a side-dish.

Taco Spice 2.0

Panter developed this mixture through experimentation over a year of tweaking. This is the final result; it is smoky, spicy, and piquant.

• 3 tbsp Chili Powder
• 2 tsp Corn Starch
• 2 tsp Smoked Salt
• ¼ tsp Smoked Paprika
• 1 tsp Ground Coriander
• ⅛ tsp Cayenne Pepper
• ½ tsp Black Pepper, fresh ground
• 1 tsp Cumin, fresh ground
• 1 tsp Onion Powder
• 1 tsp Garlic Powder
• 1 tsp Dried Mexican Oregano

Use one batch of the recipe for 1 lb (~450g) of ground protein (beef preferred, though it also goes well with alternates). Yes, that seems like a lot, but that’s how it goes. Mix with ⅔ cup of water or, for more flavour, stock/bouillon.
