#MEDLEYPOTATOES

      
               CHARACTERS

These are fully grown, mature Creamer potatoes. That's right, they won't get any bigger! Where as other tiny potatoes found in stores are babies, immature and still have a lot of growing to do. What's the difference? The taste! These Creamer potatoes are fantastic! So creamy and silky, with thin skins, so no need to peel and even chop. And they all cook evenly too!

  

• 500g baby/Red Potatoes, Cut Into Chunks
• 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
• 1 whole Onion, Peeled And Roughly Chopped
• 2 whole Red/Green Bell Pepper, Seeded And Roughly Chopped

Raise the heat to 500 degrees and bake until crisp and brown, 15 to 20 minutes, tossing twice.
Sprinkle with a little more salt and pepper before serving.

option2:
