Ingredients
- 750 g Cornish New Potatoes
- 1 roasted red pepper jarred
- 6 garlic cloves
- 2 small red chillies
- 80 ml olive oil
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

- 0.25 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne optional
- 3 tablespoon coarse sea salt
Instructions
- Put the potatoes into a pan with all the salt and cover with boiling water. Bring to the boil and then simmer for 20 minutes until softened.
- Meanwhile, put the rest of the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth to make the sauce.
- Once the 20 minutes are up, drain the potatoes and then put them back in the pan and on a very low heat for about 5 minutes, shaking regularly so the skins wrinkle.
- Put the potatoes on a plate and smother with the red sauce.

Notes
- Turn it in to a main dish by adding some chopped up vegetables and chunks of chicken breast (or thighs/legs) or halloumi and roasting them at the same time (timing may vary though).
- The nutritional information for this recipe won't be accurate, and will be an overestimate. This is because they don't keep all the salt on them.
