That’s right, I hope that got your attention. Imagine smashed potatoes, but loads of them in bloody tart form, and you can fill them with just about anything you want. 

Method

  • Line a skillet or, even better, a tart tin with baking paper and drizzle with olive oil.
  • Use a glass to crush the potatoes and smoosh them together to create a tart shape. Bake until crispy and golden.
  • Meanwhile, heat a splash more olive oil and fry the garlic briefly before adding the carrot, celery and onion. Cook gently for around 15 minutes until soft and gently caramelised.
  • Deglaze the pan with the white wine and stock, then add the tomatoes and butter beans. Spoon into the potato tart and top with the feta.
  • Return to the oven and cook until the feta has softened. Remove and scatter with parsley. Now eat!
