Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes Taco Bell (Print Version)

Crispy seasoned potatoes with nacho cheese sauce and sour cream, inspired by Taco Bell's classic dish.

# Ingredients:

→ Main components

01 - 450 grams diced potatoes, thawed if frozen
02 - 45 milliliters canola oil

→ Seasoning blend

03 - 8 grams all-purpose flour
04 - 8 grams cornstarch
05 - 8 grams taco seasoning
06 - 3 grams salt
07 - 1 gram ground black pepper

→ Finishing garnishes

08 - 425 grams nacho cheese sauce, warmed
09 - 225 grams sour cream

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 220°C. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper and set aside.
02 - Place diced potatoes in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with canola oil. Toss thoroughly to ensure all potatoes are evenly coated.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cornstarch, taco seasoning, salt, and black pepper until well mixed.
04 - Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the oiled potatoes. Gently toss to ensure all pieces are evenly seasoned.
05 - Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the pieces are not overcrowded to promote crispiness.
06 - Bake for 20 minutes. Carefully flip the potatoes with a spatula and continue roasting for an additional 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
07 - Divide the roasted potatoes among bowls. Top each portion with a generous spoonful of warmed nacho cheese sauce and a dollop of sour cream before serving.

# Notes:

01 - For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the potatoes on the baking tray and flip them halfway through baking.
