Ingredients

1kg Baby Potatoes, halved

330ml Beer

200ml EVOO, Extra Virgin Olive Oil

3 Cloves Garlic, lightly crushed

2 Sprigs Fresh Rosemary

1 tsp Fine Sea Salt

½ tsp freshly ground Black Pepper

For the Tahini Yoghurt

400g Straggato Yoghurt Authentic, Charalambides Christis

2 tbsp Tahini

2 tbsp Lemon Juice

½ tsp Fine Sea Salt

1 - 2 tbsp Cold Water (to loosen consistency)

For the Garnish

Halloumi, Charalambides Christis

2 Sprigs Fresh Thyme, leaves picked

1 tsp Chili Flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 250°C, air circulation. Place the potatoes in a baking dish and pour the beer all over them.
  2. Add the olive oil, garlic, rosemary and season with the salt & pepper. Cover tightly the dish with foil and place in the oven.
  3. Cook for 30’ to soften, uncover and cook for 90’ at 190°C, air circulation until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
  4. Remove the potatoes from the oven to a plate and allow them to drain slightly.
  5. Meanwhile, prepare the tahini yoghurt. In a bowl, combine the tahini, lemon juice and salt. Add the yoghurt and mix until smooth. If necessary, add a little cold water to achieve a silky, spreadable consistency.
  6. To assemble, spread the tahini yoghurt on a serving plate as a base. Arrange the potatoes over the yoghurt, followed by grating the halloumi over them.
  7. Finish with the chili flakes and thyme and serve immediately while warm.
