Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1.5 teaspoons Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 8 small Corn or flour tortillas (dairy-free)
• 2 cups Shredded green cabbage
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped)
• 1 large Garlic clove (minced)
• 0.5 cup Vegan mayonnaise
• 0.5 teaspoon Chipotle chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel and dice the russet potatoes into small, bite-sized cubes.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the potato cubes with olive oil, smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well-coated.

Step 4

Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Step 5

While the potatoes bake, prepare the slaw by combining shredded green cabbage, fresh lime juice, chopped cilantro, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl. Toss well and set aside.

Step 6

To make the dairy-free chipotle sauce, whisk together vegan mayonnaise, chipotle chili powder, maple syrup, and water in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the seasoning to taste if needed.

Step 7

Warm the tortillas in a skillet over medium heat for 10-15 seconds per side, or wrap them in foil and heat in the oven for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Assemble the tacos by layering a generous spoonful of the crispy potatoes onto each tortilla. Add a handful of slaw on top, then drizzle with the chipotle sauce.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your dairy-free spicy potato soft tacos!
