Spanish Potatoes

Ingredients:
2 old potatoes (large)
4 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

Directions:
Preheat the oven medium.
Alternatively the cooking can be done on top of the cooker,
either in a heavy frying pan or in a
casserole which will resist direct heat.
Peel the potatoes and cut them into thick wedges.
Pour half the oil into 4 individual shallow earthenware
casseroles or a small gratin dish.
Put the casseroles or the dish into the oven
and leave until the oil is smoking.
Arrange the potatoes in the hot oil in single layer.
Trickle on the rest of the oil,
sprinkle with salt and return to the oven.
Cook the potatoes until soft inside and crisp on the outside
this will take 25-35 minutes.
Mix together the paprika and cayenne
and sprinkle over the potatoes.
Serve them hot in their cooking dish.
