Ingredients

• 1 floury potato, approximately 200gm, diced
• 1 red pepper, roasted, skinned and sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, sliced
• pinch of saffron
• ½ tsp salt
• chicken stock

Method

In a small saucepan put the potato, red pepper, garlic, saffron and salt and barely cover with chicken stock. Simmer until the potato is tender then strain and reserve the liquid.
