*Recipe

Spicy Smashed Potatoes with Feta Dip (V)

Soundbite

Crispy smashed potatoes with all the heat and smoky flavour from marinading in Charlie & Ivy's Spicy Chorizo Marinade.

Availability

The Charlie & Ivy's range is available from independent retailers nationwide and online athttps://www.charlieandivys.co.uk/shop.html

Serves

4 as a side

Ingredients

1kg baby or new potatoes

Spicy Chorizo Marinade

100g Feta Cheese, crumbled

50g Greek Yoghurt

Handful of mint leaves, to serve

Method

Boil the potatoes whole in salted water until nearly cooked - should take 10-15 minutes. Leave to cool in a good covering of the Spicy Chorizo Marinade. Once they have slightly cooled, crush each potato to flatten slightly. We used a heavy ramekin to do this.

Brush the potatoes with the remaining marinade to ensure they are properly covered, and pop into a pre-heated oven (160C Fan / 180C / 350F / Gas Mark 4) the oven for around 45 minutes until crisp.

When ready to serve, scatter some of the crumbled Feta and mint leaves over the potatoes and reserve the rest to mix with the Greek Yoghurt for dipping.
