Salchipapas


Salchipapas is a South American fast food dish commonly consumed as street food, typically consisting of thinly sliced pan-fried beef sausages and French fries, mixed together with a savory coleslaw on the side. The dish's name is a portmanteau of the Spanish words salchicha (sausage) and papa (potato). The dish is occasionally garnished with oregano. Here is a simplified version that can be eaten for breakfast or lunch.

Makes 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound potatoes, peeled if desired and diced
  • 1-2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning or any other dried herb
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • hot dogs

Cooking Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF or 200ºC.
  2. Add all the ingredients, except hot dogs, to a large mixing bowl and mix until well combined (I prefer to use my hands).
  3. Place the potatoes onto a lined baking sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes or until soft and golden brown (my potatoes were ready in 25 minutes). For the vegetarian, you can serve as Breakfast Potatoes.
  4. Chop hot dogs and add them to the fried potatoes for the last couple minutes that you cook them.
  5. Serve immediately or keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for about 5-7 days.
