Chanterelle Mushrooms & Crispy Sage Potatoes Recipe

The ultimate, easy chanterelle mushrooms recipe that needs to be at your holiday table, tossed together with warm potato wedges, caramelized onions and lots of crispy sage. You can even treat yourself to a drizzle of that brown butter sage sauce at end, insanity!

If you want to make the vegan version of crispy sage potatoes, just crisp up your sage leaves in some olive oil or coconut oil instead of butter. Simple as that!

I’ve gotta tell you though: crispy sage leaves in salted butter are everything. Your call! I know I could eat those as an appetizer by themselves, just like that: one crispy sage leaf after another, slowly savoring every single bite.

Goes well with salmon, grilled chicken, a squeeze of lemon or a few of these soft boiled eggs on top
