Potato And Pepper Recipe

This potato and pepper recipe was given to us by Andrew Fairlie the head chef at Gleneagles, Scotland. It makes a delicious companion to rib eye steaks. Rooster potatoes are recommended and on their website it is called grilled rib eye of beef with basquasie roosters. This will serve four.

The North-East of Scotland skies are under attack from an enemy jet. It is spilling a strange yellow smoke. Minutes later, people start killing each other.
Former Royal Air Force Regiment Gunner Jason Harper witnesses this and then his wife, Pippa, telephones him, shouting that she needs him. They then get cut off. He sets straight out towards Aberdeen, unprepared for the nightmare that unfolds during his journey. Everyone seems to want to kill him.
Along the way, he pairs up with fellow survivor Imogen. But she enjoys killing the living dead far too much. Will she kill Jason in her blood thirst? Or will she hinder his journey through this zombie filled dystopian landscape to find his pregnant wife?

The Fence is the first in this series of post-apocalyptic military survival thrillers from the torturous mind of Scottish horror and science fiction novel writer C.G. Buswell.

Potato And Pepper

Wash the Roosters and then cook them whole and unpeeled in a large pan of boiling salted water until they are almost cooked.

Drain the water and set aside the tatties to cool.

Cut them into 1cm wide slices.

Now brush the skin side of the red pepper with oil and place onto a tray. Cook under a hot grill until the skin blisters and blackens.

Peel off the skin and cut the remainder into strips.

Heat a large frying pan with vegetable oil and place the sliced Rooster potatoes evenly into the hot oil and fry until they become golden brown.

Turn them over and fry the other side until they too become golden brown.

Add the butter to the cooking potatoes. Wait until the butter has foamed and then add the peppers, garlic, olives and seasoning and toss together.

Serve with grilled steak and garnish with chopped parsley.
