1kg new potatoes
sea salt
60ml olive oil
30ml lemon juice
3 tbsp capers, diced
1 tbsp anchovy paste
1 clove garlic, minced

How to make it

  • Add the potatoes to a large pot, cover with cold water and some
  • salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook potatoes for
  • about 20 minutes or until tender.
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/430°F/gas 7.
  • Pour olive oil in a large baking dish. Transfer boiled potatoes to the
  • tray and press down on each of them with a large spoon to “squish”
  • them. Brush a little oil on the top of each potato too.
  • Place in the oven and cook for ten minutes. Then, turn the heat
  • down and allow to cook for another 40-45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice,
  • capers, anchovy paste and garlic.
  • Once the potatoes are cooked, drizzle with the green sauce and
  • serve straight away on a large tray.
