Smashed Potatoes with Peppered Butter} serves 4 as a side
8 kipfler potatoes
1 teaspoon pink rock salt
1 teaspoon mixed peppercorns
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup finely diced baby rocket
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil {plus a little extra for frying}
Wash the potatoes. Boil until soft but still firm in the centre. Drain.
Using a potato masher, gently smash the potato. Breaking the skin and flattening the potato just slightly.
In a mortar and pestle, mix the salt, pepper and garlic until it forms a paste.
Heat the butter in a pan until it browns. Add the paste and stir through. Turn down the heat and fry for a minute or so. Stir in the olive oil and rocket and turn off the heat.
In a second skillet, shallow fry the potatoes on each side until golden and the skin starts to crisp.
