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

Fans of The Rocky Horror Picture Show get a Halloween-ready dish inspired by Meat Loaf’s musical number “Hot Patootie.” In The Halloween Movie Cookbook, authors Ryan Alvarez and Adam Merrin introduce “Hot Potato, Bless My Soul Patatas Bravas With a (Tim) Curry Aioli,” a pun-filled homage to the 1975 cult classic. The appetizer is built on crispy, golden roasted russet potatoes served with a spicy curry aioli made from mayonnaise, curry powder, cayenne, lemon juice, honey, turmeric, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. The recipe yields 5–6 servings, bakes potatoes at 500°F for 30–35 minutes, and finishes with parsley garnish. It also notes Tim Curry’s death at 80 on Aug. 25.
