CRISPY CHIPOTLE ROASTED SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a medium saucepan. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Boil potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes or until cooked through. Drain potatoes and cool for 10 minutes or until cool enough to handle. Position oven rack in the lower third of the oven.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange potatoes on baking sheet about 3-inch apart. Using a spatula, smash each potato to about 1/2-inch thickness. Press together if they fall apart. Combine oil and chipotles in an electric blender; puree for 1 minute or until smooth. Drizzle the oil mixture over the potatoes. Gently slide or lift potatoes to ensure oil gets underneath and potatoes are coated. Roast potatoes for 30 to 40 minutes or until deep brown and crisp. Remove from oven and serve immediately.

WW SLICED BAKED POTATOES (4 POINTS)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Peel the potatoes if the skin is too tough, otherwise just scrub and rinse them.
• Cut the potatoes into thin slices (but not all the way through - place the handle of a spoon or table knife alongside the potato to prevent the knife from slicing all the way).
• Put the potatoes in a baking dish; slightly fan out the slices.
• Drizzle the potatoes with melted butter and sprinkle with herbs and salt (to taste).
• Bake the potatoes for about 50 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven, sprinkle with parmesan and cheddar cheese.
• Bake the potatoes for another 10-15 minutes (until they're lightly browned and soft inside, and the cheeses are melted).

CHEESY CHIPOTLE POTATO SKINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pierce the potatoes all over and put on a baking tray. Bake for 1 hr until tender. Remove from the oven and leave until they're cool enough to handle. Can be done up to 1 day before. Mix the onion with the lime juice and a good pinch of salt. Leave to steep for 30 mins, or up to 1 day.
• Cut the potatoes in half and scoop out most of the fluffy middles, leaving a thin layer of potato on the skins (you can freeze the scooped-out potato for making mash, soup or fish cakes). Cut each potato half in half again and toss in the oil and plenty of seasoning. Return to the oven for 15 mins to crisp up.
• Sieve the tomatoes to drain off any excess juice (save this for another recipe, if you like). Tip the drained tomatoes into a bowl and mix in the chipotle paste.
• Remove the potato skins from the oven, dollop the tomato mixture all over, then scatter over the cheese and chilli. Return to the oven for 5 mins until the cheese has melted. Scatter with the coriander and drained onions.
