Friggione (A Side Dish of Potatoes & Tomatoes & Peppers) image

A mix of canned tomatoes, potatoes, & peppers. A nice side dish to go with sausages, chops, steak, or chicken. As a vegetarian dish this makes a meal in a pan! NOTE: Do not hurry the cooking time as this tastes better as the liquid disappears and the mixture browns. Another of my 'Alison Holst' collection of made often dishes.

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup olive oil
5 medium potatoes, cubed (approx 750g)
2 large onions
2 red peppers (or one of each) or 2 green peppers (or one of each)
1 (420 g) can tomatoes seasoned with basil garlic & oregano (in NZ. I use a can of 'Italian Seasoned Tomatoes')
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar
fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in large frypan. Non stick is best.
  • Cut the potatoes into 1cm cubes and slice the onions and peppers.
  • Add these to the hot oil and cover and cook over a low to moderate heat for about 20 minutes, stirring several times, until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned. Do not try to hurry this step by cooking on a high heat.
  • Add the can of tomatoes and their juice.
  • Cook uncovered for a further 15-30 minutes until the mixture darkens in colour and the liquid has reduced so that there is only a small amount left around the potatoes. Again do not use a high heat.
  • Season to taste and sprinkle with the chopped parsley if using before serving.
  • Serve Hot or warm reheating if neccesary if your meat is not ready at the same time.
