Store leftover potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to maintain crispiness.

The dip can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Cover and refrigerate. Stir well before serving.

Adjust the heat level by adding extra chile powder or a dash of hot sauce to the dip if you prefer more spice.
