Ingredients

  • 1 large Maris Piper potato (350g), peeled & cut into 1cm slices
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 large courgette, sliced thinly

Method

  1. Place the potato slices in a pan of boiling water and cook for 10 minutes.
  2. Preheat the grill to a medium heat. Heat the oil in a 20cm non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion and garlic for 3 minutes until soft.
