  • 2 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 handful of chopped coriander (I added about 2 tablespoons but add as little or as much as you prefer)

Method

  • Peel the potatoes and cut in half.
  • Next boil the potatoes as normal with a pinch of salt in the water.
  • Normally takes about 12-15 from boiling point to cook.
  • In the meantime start making the sauce.
  • Heat the olive oil in a frying pan on a medium heat.
  • Add the garlic to the pan and lightly fry for a minute.
  • Reduce temperature to low and add the chilli, salt, stock cube (crumble into the pan with your fingers), whiskey and beer.
  • Simmer down for 3-4 minutes (less time required if you prefer the sauce thinner).
