Tornado potatoes, also known as spiral potatoes, are a delightful street food that originated in South Korea. These crispy, spiral-cut potatoes are seasoned to perfection and served on a skewer, making them a fun and tasty treat that's perfect for parties, picnics, or a cozy night in. The process of creating the tornado shape not only enhances the presentation but also allows for more surface area to absorb those delicious flavors. With a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior, these potatoes are sure to impress your guests and satisfy your cravings!

Servings: 4

Ingredients

Potatoes
4 medium-sized, preferably russet or yukon gold
Olive oil
3 tablespoons
Paprika
1 teaspoon
Garlic powder
1 teaspoon
Salt
1 teaspoon
Pepper
1/2 teaspoon
Skewers
4 (wooden or metal)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry.
  3. Insert a skewer into each potato lengthwise, ensuring the skewer goes through the center.
  4. Using a sharp knife, carefully make a spiral cut along the length of each potato, keeping the cut as even as possible. Start at one end and spiral down to the other end, making sure not to cut all the way through.
  5. Gently pull the potato slices apart to create the signature tornado shape.
  6. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a seasoned oil.
  7. Brush the seasoned oil mixture generously onto each potato, making sure to coat all the slices for maximum flavor.
  8. Place the tornado potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
  9. Serve hot, garnished with extra seasoning or your favorite dipping sauce.
