  • 1.5kg large sebago (starchy) potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil 
  • sea salt and cracked black pepper 
  • 100g wild rocket (arugula) leaves, to serve 

chimichurri sauce

  • ⅓ cup chopped flat-leaf parsley 
  • 1 tablespoon chopped oregano 
  • 2 teaspoons chopped rosemary 
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika 
  • ½ teaspoon dried chilli flakes 
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed 
  • 1 bay leaf 
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar 
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil 
  • sea salt and cracked black pepper
  1. To make the chimichurri sauce, place the parsley, oregano, rosemary, paprika, chilli flakes, garlic, bay leaf, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix to combine. Set aside. Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). 
  2. Place the potato in a large saucepan of salted cold water over high heat and bring to the boil. Cook for 10 minutes or until the potato is just tender. Drain, return the potato to the pan and cook for 1 minute to remove excess moisture. Shake the pan to fluff the potato.
