00:00Hi my name is Joe, I'm the head chef at Salt Yard Restaurant and today I'm going to be

00:03showing you how to do the perfect pajoran pepper.

00:09Pajoran peppers are traditionally Spanish tass, they are very commonly used at the very

00:16beginning of a meal and I'm going to show you how to cook them at home.

00:20So the first thing to do is take a handful of the peppers and coat them in oil.

00:32You need to heavily season them with rock salt, it's really important you use the Maldon

00:37Sea Salt or a really nice flaked salt.

00:40You want to taste the salt while you're eating the peppers and the seasoning and flavour of

00:44the rock salt is so much better than table salt.

00:46A little sprinkle of pepper and mix it together with your hands and then they're ready to fry.

00:57The trick with padrons is to make sure the pan is as hot as it possibly can be, making sure

01:01the oil is smoking and then we add the padrons in.

01:19Once the padrons are blistered and burnt around the outside and slightly soft to touch, we're ready to go.

01:25Be careful because they do split in the pan and will spit at you.

01:29I'm going to take them from here.

01:32And just the last thing to do, season it with a little bit of salt and there we have it,

01:53padron peppers.

01:55You're good.
