  • Potato Wedges
  • 500g Kipfler, Desiree or Dutch Cream potatoes (can also use sweet potato if preferred), cut into wedges about 1–2cm wide
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or ghee (or even duck fat), melted
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Sea salt & black pepper, to taste

  • Spanish Eggs
  • 1 tbsp butter or ghee
  • 1 chorizo sausage (mild or spicy), sliced in half & thinly sliced across
  • 1 large or 2 small cloves garlic, crushed or finely chopped
  • 1 red onion, peeled, halved & finely sliced
  • 2 × 400g tins diced tomatoes
  • 1 red capsicum, diced into little cubes
  • 1 tbsp sherry vinegar
  • Sea salt & black pepper, to taste
  • 4 eggs
  • 100g feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Method


  • Preheat oven to 200°C.
  • To make potato wedges, line baking dish with baking paper. Toss wedges in fat of your choice, oregano, smoked paprika and seasoning.
  • Arrange on tray in single layer and bake for 20–30 mins or until crispy and cooked through.
  • To make Spanish eggs, melt butter or ghee in saucepan over moderate heat. Cook chorizo for a few mins until crispy. Add garlic and red onion and cook for a few more mins until onion begins to soften.
  • Add tomato, capsicum, vinegar and seasoning and bring to slow simmer. Cook uncovered until sauce begins to reduce. Check seasoning.
  • Divide mixture into 4 small ramekins. Make indent in top of sauce and cram egg on top. Sprinkle with feta and bake for 8–12 mins, depending on how you like your eggs.
  • Sprinkle with parsley and serve with lemon and potato wedges.
  • Tip: To make it vegetarian, simply omit the chorizo and add a tsp of smoked paprika with garlic and onion.
