Baked potatoes with Anchovies

This recipe is a comfort food, and is something to eat as a side dish with rice or bread; as you like it. This is from one of the Jamie Oliver shows. Nothing fancy, just simple ingredients and steps. So here we go.

Ingredients:
  • Onion - half
  • Potatoes - 3 to 4 small potatoes
  • Olive oil - 3 tbsp
  • Butter - half a knob (optional add along with olive oil)
  • Anchovies - 3 - 4 slivers
  • Parmesan cheese - 4 tbsp (grated)
  • Garlic - 3 cloves
  • Chicken stock - 1 cup
  • Salt - to taste
  • Pepper - to taste

Preparation:
  • Finely chop the onions, thinly slice the potatoes (like wafers) and grate the garlic cloves and set aside
  • Add 3 tbsp of oil to a pan and heat it up. If you want to add butter, you can add it now. However, instead of 3 tbsp of oil use only 2.
  • Add the onions and garlic to the oil and fry until soft
  • Add potatoes and salt and pepper to taste
  • Let them cook for a couple of minutes
  • Add the anchovies, and add half a tbsp of anchovies oil as well
  • Stir the pot so that everything comes together and let is simmer
  • Add the chicken stock and let is simmer for 5 minutes so that it reduces down
  • Preheat the oven at 400 deg
  • Once everything is reduced, add them to a baking tray. Drizzle the Parmesan cheese on top and put it inside the oven
  • Set timer for 10 mins or wait until cooked. Serve hot with rice or bread. Enjoy
