Cajun Potatoes

             
Crispy potatoes topped with creamy cajun sauce..  Can be made in a jiffy..This is one recipe that most cooks need to have in their repertoire..
                Cajun spice is a perfect blend of spicy, pungent and earthy.. It includes onion, garlic, cayenne, pepper and many other seasonings, which is used in cajun cuisine, popular among the Acadian immigrants from Canada to Louisiana.. This spice can very easily be blended into Indian dishes, adding more flavour and taste..
                The first time I had this Cajun Potatoes, I instantly fell in love with this.. Im not a great fan of anything potatoeyy, it is the last vegetable that i would want to have ever, ( i know it surprises you all as to how can someone not like potato).. it doesnt appeal my taste buds.. But then this dish did tingle my tastebuds for sure.. Its a different story, I had been licking more of this sauce than eating the potatoes.. But yeah,, i can definitely have this once a while for a change..
                But for those who loves potatoes, this is a must try snack.. And am sure you wil want to have it again and again..
