Chorizo, Halloumi & Potato Tray Bake
An Original Recipe by Lorraine Elliott
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 35 minutes
Serves: 4 people
- 500g/1.1lbs potatoes
- Salt
- 3 x chorizo sausages (around 375g), sliced
- 1 large red onion (250g/8.8ozs, I mean BIG), peeled
- 6 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
- 1 large red capsicum, sliced
- Extra virgin olive oil
- 200g/7ozs. halloumi, sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 lemon and fresh bread to serve
Step 1 - Preheat oven to 200C/400F and grease a baking tray. Cut the potatoes into chunks and then steam or boil these (I pop it in the microwave with an inch of water and cover and cook on 100% for 5 minutes). Drain and add salt to the potatoes and set aside.
Step 2 - Slice the chorizo up and place it in the baking tray on the bottom. Peel the onion and slice it into 8 crescents and add this and the garlic and capsicum and the salted potato on top. Drizzle with olive oil and smoked paprika and bake for 30 minutes turning the mixture after 20 minutes to make sure that the mixture roasts evenly.
Step 3 - Switch the oven onto grill and add halloumi on top of the bake and grill for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with pepper, parsley and serve with lemon and fresh bread.
