Breakfast Potatoes ( Vegan )
Description
The recipe combines cubed potatoes with finely chopped onions, garlic, and colorful bell peppers seasoned with salt, thyme, rosemary, cayenne pepper, and black pepper. After coating everything evenly with neutral cooking oil, the potatoes bake at 400°F until tender and lightly browned. Broiling briefly at the end can add a crisper finish. This baking method yields potatoes with a tender texture that soak up aromatic herbs without excessive oil.
The flavor balance between the mild heat from cayenne, the sweetness of bell peppers and onions, and the earthiness of thyme and rosemary makes these breakfast potatoes versatile for serving with eggs, vegan protein alternatives, or sauces like salsa or hot sauce. The dish is prepared without animal products and can be adjusted with other root vegetables for variety.
For an oil-free alternative, aquafaba and a light flour dust can help herbs and spices adhere. Garlic powder can substitute fresh garlic if needed. Adding vegetables such as sweet potato, parsnips, or fennel can create variations. Serving hot with ketchup, salsa, or hot sauce is recommended for flavor enhancement.
