The potatoes take SIGNIFICANTLY longer to cook than the recipe says. I think they were cook for 60 minutes and they still weren’t quite soft enough.

I was afraid to put in 1/2 tsp. of cayenne pepper and only put in 1 shake. The gyro I made with it could have used a little more heat. Next time I'll put in another shake, maybe 1/8 tsp?
