Preheat the oven

Step 1
Cut the potatoes into Lego shapes
- Slice the potatoes lengthwise into half-inch slices.
- Use metal skewers to cut about 1/4 inch apart, then turn the potato 90° and cut the same way to make a crosshatch pattern.
- Cut the crosshatched slices into quarters and square off the edges.
Step 2
Soak in ice water
- Place the potato bites in ice water to remove the starch.
Step 3
Coat with Cajun butter
- Drain and pat the potatoes dry.
- Slather them generously with the melted Cajun butter.
Step 4
Roast the potatoes
- Arrange the potatoes on a baking tray and roast for about 30 minutes.
Step 5
Make the chipotle ranch
- While the potatoes roast, mix the sour cream, mayonnaise, diced chipotle pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dill and sea salt in a bowl.
Step 6
Broil for char
- For the last few minutes, switch the oven to broil until the potatoes have a nice char.
Step 7
Garnish and serve
