Halloween Movie' recipe: Hot Potato, Bless My Soul Patatas Bravas With a (Tim) Curry Aioli

“The Halloween Movie Cookbook” authors Ryan Alvarez and Adam Merrin pay tribute to “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” (1975) with a pun-laced recipe inspired by Meat Loaf’s musical number “Hot Patootie.” The dish, titled Hot Potato, Bless My Soul Patatas Bravas With a (Tim) Curry Aioli, is described as a zesty, spicy spin on classic Spanish tapas. It features roasted russet potato chunks baked until golden and crispy, then served with a drizzle of curry aioli made from mayonnaise, curry powder, cayenne, lemon juice, honey, turmeric, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. The recipe yields 5–6 servings. It notes the Tim Curry reference is timely after his Aug. 25 death at 80.
