Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C.
- Boil the potatoes for 15 mins until tender. Drain and set aside.
- Line a large baking tray with greaseproof paper and drizzle over the oil. Add the potatoes to the tray and coat in the oil. Use a glass to gently ‘smash’ the potatoes so they flatten and are crushed. Season with salt and pepper, then roast in the oven for 40 mins, turning halfway. They should be a deep golden brown and crispy.
- Meanwhile, grill the bacon until golden and crispy. Set aside and finely chop.
- In a large bowl, mix together the sour cream, yogurt, white wine vinegar and mustard. Stir in the sprouts, chives, dill and cranberries.
- Add the potatoes and bacon bits to the dressing and toss everything together. Serve immediately with extra chives for garnish.
