27th June – Basque potatoes with sausages and vine cherry tomatoes

Ingredients (serves 2):

  • 16-20 new potatoes
  • 4-6 sausages – your choice
  • 8-10 vine cherry tomatoes
  • 1 knob of butter
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves – crushed and finely sliced or pressed
  • 1 teaspoon of dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon of fried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees C.

Melt the butter in a pan over a medium heat and then add the garlic, parsley, thyme, rosemary and paprika.  Simmer for 30 seconds before turning off the heat.  Add the potatoes to the pan and toss in the liquid.  Pour the potatoes out onto a foil lined baking tray, ensuring that you don’t waste any of the cooking liquid.  Cook in the oven for 20-40 minutes, basting with any excess sauce every ten minutes, until cooked and nicely colour.  Cook the sausages in the oven at the same time as the potatoes, again until cooked.  You can oven bake the cherry tomatoes also or alternatively serve them fresh on the plate.

Serve up the sausages, potatoes and cherry tomatoes and enjoy!
