Ingredients

- 1kg potatoes, unpeeled, cut into large wedges
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 jarred roasted red pepper, roughly chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 400g can chopped tomatoes
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp cayenne pepper
- Fresh flat leaf parsley leaves, to garnish (optional)

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C Fan/Gas Mark 6. Put the potato wedges into a large roasting tray, using two trays if necessary. Drizzle over half the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well to coat. Bake for 30 - 35 minutes until golden brown and cooked all the way through.

2. Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a saucepan over a medium - high heat, add the onion and fry for 8 - 10 minutes, stirring often until soft and golden. Add the roasted pepper and garlic. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Add the chopped tomatoes, paprika and cayenne pepper. Simmer for 10 - 15 minutes until reduced and thickened.

3. Spoon the tomato mixture onto a serving platter or individual plates. Top with the potato wedges. Garnish with the parsley leaves, if using. Serve with soured cream, sweetcorn, sliced spring onion, diced avocado and chopped chilli, if liked.
