mayonnaise

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt offers a lighter alternative with similar creaminess.

paprika

🥗Healthier: smoked paprika

💰Cheaper: regular paprika

Smoked paprika adds depth without extra cost.

cayenne pepper

🥗Healthier: chili powder

💰Cheaper: red pepper flakes

Chili powder provides heat with more flavor complexity.

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add baking soda.

Add butter potatoes to the boiling water and cook for about 7 to 10 minutes.

Check if potatoes are done by testing for resistance; they should be soft but not mushy.

Return the potatoes to the pot and season with salt, stirring aggressively to create rough edges.

Heat olive oil in a pan and add the roughened potatoes to fry until crispy.

In the same oil, add sliced garlic and thai chili peppers, then add shrimp to cook until done.
