To make a delicious roasted potato chilli dish simply - tip the potatoes into a roasting tin and roast at 200?C /400?F/ Fan 180?C/ Gas Mark 6 for about 20- 25 minutes until golden and crisp. Add the bacon 5 minutes before the end of the roasting time just to heat through.

Method

1. Cook the potatoes in a saucepan of lightly salted boiling water for 15 minutes until tender. Drain the potatoes and leave them to cool.
2. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them evenly and set aside. Wipe out the saucepan and dry.
3. Fry the bacon, adding a little oil if necessary, until golden. Lift out the bacon and drain on kitchen paper.
4. Put the olive oil, lemon juice, chilli and onions into the pan and heat gently for a minute or two.
5. Carefully add the potatoes to the pan and turn them over several times to thoroughly coat them, taking care not to break them up. Stir in the bacon.
6. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, put the lid on the pan and leave everything to infuse and cool completely.
7. Spoon the potatoes into a large dish and pour on any remaining oil. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley.
