Servings: persons

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 lbs large white potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
1 1/4 cups cubed Velveeta cheese
1/4 cup of your favorite salsa
Tabasco sauce, to taste
1/2 cup sour cream, divided
1 green onion, chopped (green part only)

1
Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
2
In a Ziplock bag, mix the garlic powder and cumin together; add the cubed potatoes, seal the Ziplock, and toss it all together until potatoes are coated evenly.
3
In a large, heavy skillet over medium heat melt the oil and butter together.
4
Add the seasoned potatoes and cook, stirring frequently, until they're a nice, golden brown, about 10 minutes; cover and cook an additional 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender then season to taste with salt and pepper.
5
Transfer the sauteed potatoes to a non-stick baking sheet and bake at 475 degrees F for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are nice and crisp.
6
When potatoes are almost done baking, place the cubed Velveeta, salsa, and Tabasco into a microwave-safe bowl (I use a large Pyrex measuring bowl) and microwave for 1 minute; stir and microwave another minute; stir again and microwave for 1 more minute, then stir until smooth.
7
For each serving, place some potatoes in a bowl, then pour over 1/4 of the melted Velveeta cheese sauce, top with some sour cream, then sprinkle with chopped green onion.
