My Grandma’s Mojo Potatoes: A Crispy, Spicy, and Comforting Family Favorite

Some recipes aren’t just food — they’re memories. This one came straight from my grandma’s cozy kitchen, where the smell of herbs, garlic, and golden potatoes could make anyone feel at home. She called them her “Mojo Potatoes” — crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, perfectly seasoned, and served with her creamy, tangy dipping sauce that she swore could “fix any bad day.”

It’s one of those simple dishes that somehow makes everyone happy — a little spicy, a little smoky, and irresistibly comforting. I’ve been making this recipe for years now, not just during the holidays but all year long. It’s a hit at cookouts, family dinners, and even quiet nights when all you need is something warm and delicious.

Here’s how you can bring Grandma’s Mojo Potatoes to your own table.
