Yoghurt Filled Tandoori Baby Potatoes
- 1 pack of The Spice Tailor Classic Tandoori Marinade Kit
- 8 baby potatoes, more or less of the same size
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Filling
- 150g proper Greek yoghurt plus 2 tbsp extra
- 1/3 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander plus extra for garnish
- 1½ level tbsp finely chopped red or spring onion
- 1 rounded tbsp dried cranberries, raisins or chopped dried fig
- Peel the potatoes and halve lengthways. Using a teaspoon, make and scrape out a deep depression so that the potatoes look like egg halves where the yellow has been removed; the edges should be around 1 – 1.5cm thick. Add them to a pot of boiling salted water and boil for 8 minutes or until the shells are just soft. (they can also be fried for 4 minutes for a richer dish). Remove and cool.
- Scrape the tandoori marinade from the pouch into a bowl and add 1 tbsp vegetable oil. Place potato halves inside and coat well.
- Heat the oven to 220°C (Fan 200°C/Gas Mark 7), place the potatoes flat side up on the middle shelf and bake for 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, stir together the ingredients for the filling, using 1 tbsp water if necessary to loosen a little. Season to taste.
- Also mix the mint chutney from the chutni pouch with the extra 2 level tbsp of yoghurt and loosen again with 1 tbsp water. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Once the potatoes are done, top each half with a rounded tsp of the filling. Drop over ½ tsp of the mint chutni and serve immediately with the extra mint chutni on the side.
