Small wrinkled potatoes in a roasting pan

You'll need

  • 1 kg small new potatoes, unpeeled
  • 100 g coarse sea salt
  • 1 large bunch coriander
  • 1 green pepper, roughly chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tbsp sherry vinegar
  • 120 ml LYMANORA extra virgin olive oil

Method

  1. 1

    Put the potatoes in a pan with the salt and just enough water to cover. Boil for about 20 minutes until tender.

  2. 2

    Pour off the water and return the pan to a low heat, shaking it until the potatoes dry and their skins wrinkle under a thin crust of salt.

  3. 3

    For the mojo, blend the coriander, pepper, garlic, cumin and vinegar, then blend in the olive oil in a slow stream.

  4. 4

    Serve the potatoes warm with the mojo spooned over or alongside.
