Potatoes Forums are a wonderful way to meet new people, share ideas, knowledge and experience, and the Eating Britain Forums are no exception! Our wonderful members have been adding great mouth-watering recipes, the very best of which I’ll be show-casing here on the main site.

Without further ado, here is the first of our member recipes to get your juices flowing, contributed by New Foodie - Violets:

New potatoes with bacon and spinach

Ingredients

1 kg small new potatoes (washed and sliced)
100g thinly sliced smoked bacon
1 fat clove garlic (minced)
around 100g Baby spinach
150ml single cream
150ml double cream
50g extra mature chedder, finely grated
cold pressed rapeseed oil

Add about two tablespoons of rapeseed oil to a large pan, warm over a medium heat until it starts to bubble, then add the bacon and cook until it starts to crisp.

Add the potatoes and garlic, and allow them to cook and soak up the flavours of the bacon, leave on a medium heat for about 10 mins or until the potatoes start to become tender.

Add the creams to the pan and a good grind of pepper and a little salt (if required), allow the cream to come slowly up to the boil, then turn the heat down to very low and cover with a lid, leave to cook for around another ten mins ensuring that the cream doesn’t burn.

Turn off the heat and add the spinach and cheese, return the lid to the pan to allow the heat to wilt the spinach, which will take a few mins.

Serve with crusty bread.

Wonderful! Thank you Violets :)

This recipe sounds divine and I can’t wait to try it! I think it would be fantastic with roast chicken and of course you can create a veggie version by simply missing out the bacon.
