FAQS
Can I use different types of potatoes?
Yes, you can use any type of potato you prefer, such as russet, Yukon gold, or red potatoes. Adjust cooking time as needed based on the potato type.
How can I make this recipe less spicy?
Reduce or omit the scotch bonnet pepper. You can also reduce the amount of chili sauce or use a milder chili sauce.
Can I bake the potatoes instead of frying them?
