Ingredients

20 baby potatoes
4 -5 long dry red chillies (mine were extremely hot Thai bird chillies, so I used 4)
1 red bell pepper or red capsicum
3 inches of ginger
3 large garlic cloves
1 tsp vinegar
0.25 cup vegetable oil
0.25 cup peanuts, crushed
a handful of spring onions, chopped finely.
Salt to taste

Method

Cook the potatoes until soft. Peel and discard skin (optional). Using a toothpick, prick holes all over the potatoes. You may cut them in half, if needed to even out the sizes.
Blend the red chillies, red pepper, ginger, garlic and salt into a smooth paste.
Pour marinade over the potatoes, stir well to combine, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for 5-6 hours or overnight.
Heat oil in a large pan, drop in the marinated potatoes with the marinade. Stir well, cover and let it cook until the juices are absorbed and the potatoes are dry.
Stir in the crushed peanuts and chopped spring onions.
Serve hot!
