Ok so I made these the other night with stuff that was left in my fridge (bit of a cheat as I’d made chimichurri mushrooms for a party a few days earlier.  Don’t really care though).  And they were so tasty that I ate them all before remembering to take a picture.  Wah.  I’m not normally grateful that the washing up never gets done, but this time I am.

The short of it is that they’re yum, and super easy to make too.  Basically bosh everything in a big bowl, mix and cook until done, shouting “Ariba” every now and then to stay in the mood.  This makes them your best friend to take to a summer bbq.  Everyone will love you.

Recipe after the jump…

Ingredients

  • 300g new potatoes, in 5mm slices
  • 1 red and 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced into appx 10-12 strips each
  • large handful of chopped fresh parsley
  • large handful of chopped fresh coriander
  • 3 cloves garlic, bashed and minced
  • 1 green chili pepper (deseeded if you’re a wuss like me), chopped finely
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • pinch of salt & freshly ground pepper
Like it says – bosh everything together in a big bowl and stir to coat the potatoes and peppers.  Pour out into a large baking dish – if you have a dish big enough to spread everything out then that’s fine, but a few overlapping friendly tats won’t cause any problems at all.  Then roast in a hot oven (around 200C) for 40 mins until the potatoes are cooked through.  Ariba!
