Chilli and Rosemary Potatoes

We had chargrilled Scotch Fillet for dinner last night which as always was cooked to perfection.  However I just didn't fancy a baked potato or potato bake as a side dish - tonight I wanted something different.
 
I was looking through my favourite website Taste.com and came accross this recipe for Chilli and Rosemary Potatoes.  Obviously I just had to try the recipe!!
 
The chilli flavour can be increased or decreased depending on the chilli that you use.  Milder use a long fresh red chilli, deseeded or leave seeds in for some heat, but for a hotter more intense flavour use a small red bullet chilli.
 
Another dish that was very easy to make and had a very nice flavour to them with accompanied the steak perfectly.
