INGREDIENTS

 

2 x 750g baby Spud Lite Potatoes

1 bulb garlic, broken into individual cloves with skin on

1/2 cup caper berries, rinsed

½ cup semi dried tomatoes, drained

1/3 cup parsley leaves, roughly chopped

 

Dressing

1/3 cup olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

¼ cup black olive tapenade

4 anchovies (optional), finely chopped

2 teaspoons dried mixed herbs

Salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper

METHOD

 

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced).
  1. Cook potatoes in a large pot of gently boiling water for 25 minutes. Drain.
  1. For the dressing, combine olive oil, garlic, tapenade, anchovies, mixed herbs, salt and pepper together in a small bowl, stirring to combine.
  1. Place hot drained potatoes on two lightly oiled non-stick baking trays. Using the back of a wooden spoon crush potatoes and drizzle over dressing.
