Salt n Vinegar Roast Potato Salad

Ingredients

  • 1.5 kg baby potatoes, halved

  • A good drizzle of oil
  • Man Grind Flakes, to taste
  • 2 tsp Blow My Coals 
  • 2 bunches asparagus, trimmed
  • ½ cup Chip Butty 
  • A few handfuls of rocket
  • 400g hot smoked salmon, flaked (or swap for crispy bacon + boiled eggs)
  • 1–2 tbsp capers
  • ½ small red onion or a few spring onions, finely sliced

Directions

  1. Toss the halved potatoes in oil, Man Grind Flakes and Blow My Coals, then roast at 200°C for 25 to 30 minutes until crispy on the outside and soft in the middle.

  2. While they roast, blanch the asparagus in boiling salted water for about a minute, then plunge it into cold water to keep it bright and crisp.
  3. Once the potatoes are golden and still warm, gently toss them with ½ cup of Chip Butty mayo so they soak up all that salt n vinegar goodness.
  4. On a large platter, layer the rocket, dressed potatoes, asparagus and flaked hot smoked salmon. Scatter over the capers and sliced onion.
  5. Serve warm or at room temperature. It is magic either way.
