Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Slice the potatoes very thinly with a mandoline, or using a sharp knife, and put in a colander with a pinch of salt for 15 minutes.
step 2
Fry the peppers in 1 tbsp of olive oil for a few minutes until beginning to soften.
step 3
Blitz the peppers, tomatoes, capers and anchovies in a food processor to a paste. Put the potatoes in an oven dish and add the wine, remaining oil, oregano, black pepper, and pepper and tomato paste to the dish. Mix everything really well and season.
step 4
Flatten the potatoes and cover with baking paper. Bake for 40 minutes and then check whether the potatoes are soft. When they are, remove the paper and put back into the oven for 20-30 minutes or until a golden crust has formed on the top.
