    Chinese Five Spice Taters. Savoury with a delicious Asian twist. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Perfect as a side dish. This recipe only requires 5 ingredients.

    I am a huge fan of potatoes. White or yellow potatoes are my all-time favourite. Yes I know sweet potato gets a lot of glory but I personally love the savoury taste of your average spud.

    Chinese Five Spice Potatoes

    When it comes to potatoes, I'm always trying to find more delicious ways to eat them. I love mixing up my carbs, from noodles to rice to pasta to potatoes.

    Sometimes spices can be a simple and delicious way to elevate your potatoes! Chinese Five Spice is one of those delicious yet underrated spices in the cuisine world and I hope to give it some spotlight. It tastes incredible with roasted potatoes. Once you have this spice in your house you'll want to throw it on anything!

    If you're not a fan of chopping these potatoes into diced shapes, feel free to cut them into any shape you desire. You can even make these into Chinese five spice potatoΒ wedges! If you decide to make the potato shape larger, make sure to increase the baking time.

        Thanks so much Heidi! I love using avocado oil to bake as it can withstand a higher cooking temperature without smoking.

      These Chinese Five Spice taters were a nice switch-up from my usual potatoes. They were so flavorful, crispy, and easy to make! I will definitely make them again.
