Mediterranean Roast Potatoes

Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 55 mins
Total Time 1 hr
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 750 g new potatoes
  • 4 tbsp light olive oil
  • 1 bulb garlic separated into cloves
  • 50 g anchovy fillets tinned, drained and sliced
  • 200-300 g cherry tomatoes on the vine
  • 3-4 tbsp sliced olives black and green
  • Black pepper to season

Instructions
 

  • Begin by preheating the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6.
  • Place the potatoes in a roasting tin and coat with 2tbsp olive oil. Roast them in the centre of the oven for 20 mins.
  • Remove from the oven and add the rest of the ingredients, drizzling over the remaining olive oil and grinding over some black pepper. Return to the oven for 20-25 mins, or until the potatoes are tender and the skins on the tomatoes are just starting to split. Serve immediately.

Notes

The way to tell whether a potato is new – rather than just small – is to rub the skin. It should come off easily.
