Ingredients
FOR THE HOMEMADE FRENCH FRIES (“PAPAS”)
- 2 large potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste you can use other seasonings as well
FOR THE SAUSAGES (“SALCHICHAS”)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 all-beef sausages Use your favorite hot dog brand, or use pork or chicken sausages
AJI AMARILLO SAUCE
- 2 tablespoons aji amarillo paste
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup crema or use sour cream
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste ketchup is a good substitute
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- salt and pepper to taste
FOR SERVING (Optional)
- Ketchup, mustard, fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
FOR THE FRENCH FRIES (“PAPAS”)
- Wash and scrub the potatoes, then slice them into ¼ inch slices lengthwise. Think “French fry” size. You can leave the skins on, if desired. I left mine on.
- Cover the potatoes in a bowl with cold water and let them soak for at least 10 minutes. 60 minutes is better.
- Drain and pat the potatoes as dry as you can get them.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Toss the potatoes with olive oil and a bit of salt and pepper (I also use spicy chili powder). Be sure to get them nicely coated.
- Spread the fries out onto baking sheets and bake them for 20 minutes, tossing them a bit about half way through.
- Increase the heat to 450 degrees and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the baked fries are nice and crispy and golden brown. Keep warm.
FOR THE SAUSAGES (“SALCHICAS”)
- Heat the oil in a large pan to medium heat and add the sausages (hot dogs). Cook for 3-4 minutes to warm them through.
- Slice the sausages into bite-sized pieces.
FOR THE AJI AMARILLO SAUCE
- Whisk the ingredients together in a small bowl.
TO ASSEMBLE
- Spread the French fries onto a serving platter, then top with sausages.
- Drizzle on the aji Amarillo sauce and fresh parsley (if desired).
- Serve with ketchup and mustard on the side, or drizzled over the top.
Notes
- You can use frozen French fries for this recipe – simply prepare them per the packaging instructions.
