Method
- Heat oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9. Boil the potatoes until the softer side of cooked, about 12 mins. Drain, slice in half, then tip into a bowl. Tip the capers, olives and herbs on top of the potatoes, then add most of the oil and a little seasoning. Stir together, lightly crushing the potatoes.
- Line a medium Swiss roll-type tin with baking parchment, leaving some hanging over the sides. Tip the potatoes into the tin and flatten down. Mix the vinegar and remaining oil, drizzle over the potatoes, then bake for 40 mins until golden.

Absolutely delicious. The potatoes were so creamy. It was a taste sensation. I put in extra capers as I love them. It was so good that I'm making it again tonight.
I made it to go with this: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/10757/roast-summer-vegetables-and-chi... but left the potatoes out of this recipe.
These are really tasty and a nice alternative, we usually have wesges with everything! I halved the amount of potatoes and vinigar and only used 2tbsp of oil and still worked out lovly and crispy, might try again with just 1tbsp of oil as I dont usually cook with a lot but still wanted the crispyness - now added to the weeks menu
Really lovely with roast summer vegetables and salad for a vegan meal when a friend came to stay. Cooking it tonight with chicken and salad for meat eating friends. Also, makes a great potato salad the next day or is great in an omelette or with scrambled eggs and smoked salmon so make extra whilst you can.
