Batata Harra

Moderate histamine

Batata harra is moderate, mostly because of the lemon splashed over the spicy potatoes.

Histamine Liberator

This is fried or roasted potatoes tossed with garlic, coriander, chili, olive oil, and lemon.

  • Lemon keeps it from being low — the citrus is here only as a small finishing squeeze, but as a liberator it is enough to hold the dish at moderate.

  • Chili sits in the middle — the chili lands moderate, so it adds to the picture, while the potato, garlic, coriander, and olive oil stay milder and make up the rest.

Skipping the lemon and keeping the garlic and chili leaves you with a much gentler plate of potatoes.
