Ingredients

4 to 6 Idaho, Washington or Yellow Gold potatoes, about 1 1/2 pounds
1 large sweet red pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable or corn oil
1/2 cup thinly sliced white onions
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

Steps:

Peel the potatoes, and cut them into 1/4-inch cubes. As the cubes are cut, drop them into cold water.
Cut away and discard the pepper core and the veins and seeds. Cut the pepper into 1/4-inch cubes.
Drain the potatoes, and add them to a small saucepan with enough water to cover and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 1 minute. Drain well.
Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet, and add the potatoes. Cook, stirring and shaking the pan as necessary, for 5 minutes over medium heat.
Add the onions, red pepper and salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring and tossing, for about 4 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and browned.
Drain the oil, add the butter, and cook, tossing, for 1 minute. Sprinkle with the parsley, and serve immediately.
