Wash and dry the capsicum and brush it with olive oil. Put it on a small tray and put it in the oven and cook it, carefully turning once until the skin is blistered and charred. Allow to cool a little and then put in a freezer bag and twist up. When cool enough to handle skin and seed it.

Fry the shallots in olive oil until they are golden. Season and add the mushrooms and continue cooking until they have expelled their liquor and are lightly coloured. Blanch the potato in boiling salted water for a couple of minutes and drain. do not cook. Tip the potatoes into a bowl, season with salt and pepper, add a splash of olive oil and the parsley and gently mix together. Generously oil the pan and layer the bottom with about half of the potato. Lay anchovies on top and then add the mushrooms and even out the layer over the potato and scatter some more anchovies and truffle slices. Decoratively arrange the potato on top and decorate the top with the remaining anchovies and roasted capsicum. Drizzle the top with olive oil.
