BAKED POTATO ROSES [VEGAN]

INGREDIENTS

• 4 large potatoes
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoon pepper powder
• 2 teaspoons garlic granules or powder
• 2 teaspoons dried thyme
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano

PREPARATION

1. Preheat oven to 390°F.
2. Wash and peel potatoes. Slice them using a mandolin slicer. Keep aside. Take out a muffin tin, grease with coconut oil, and set aside.
3. Whisk together olive oil, salt, pepper powder, garlic granules, dried thyme, and dried oregano. Set aside.
4. Arrange about 15 potato slices overlapping one another. Brush the olive oil mixture over the top.
5. Roll carefully, holding on to all the slices to get a beautiful rose. Make a rose size that fits in your muffin tin.
6. Place these in the greased muffin tin.
7. Bake for about 30-35 minutes. The edges should turn brown and crisp and potatoes should be cooked through.
8. Remove from oven and serve immediately with any dipping sauce of your choice.
