Instructions

  1. 1. Heat 4 1/4 cups vegetable oil in a large pan to 325°F. Fry the potato slices in batches for 5-6 minutes, then remove and set aside. Keep the oil warm.
  2. 2. For the sauce, heat 1 tbsp sunflower oil in a saucepan, add the diced red bell pepper and half the diced onion, and sauté for 4-5 minutes. Stir in the tomato puree and sauté for 1-2 minutes, then sprinkle over 1 1/2 tbsp flour. Gradually pour in the vegetable stock, bring to a boil, and simmer, stirring, for 4-5 minutes. Stir in half the oregano, the caster sugar, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside and keep warm.
  3. 3. Mix the diced red bell pepper, paprika, remaining diced onion, mustard, egg, breadcrumbs, and a little water together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Shape the mixture into 4 portions.
  4. 4. Heat 2 tbsp sunflower oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the portions and fry for 8-9 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and heated through.
  5. 5. Fry the potatoes once more in the hot oil for 3-4 minutes until crispy. Do this in batches and remove using a slotted spoon. Sprinkle the finished fries with salt and pepper.
  6. 6. Dust 1 tbsp flour over the sliced onion, then add to the hot oil after the fries. Fry for 1-2 minutes until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  7. 7. To serve, divide the tomato sauce evenly and top with a portion. Serve the crispy fries on the side and garnish with the fried onion rings.
