puh-tey-toh, pə-tā'tō, po-tah-toh

However you pronounce it, this has nothing more than that as the main ingredient. It is cold outside and I am in my kitchen with my apron and camera :-) trying an old and simple recipe of my friend's.

I can call myself a decent cook, but I am terrible at giving recipes, in terms of measures!

 

Here is the recipe for this Potato dish.

 

What you will need:

Potatoes, boiled, peeled and diced.

Dry red peppers

Coarsely ground black pepper (I prefer freshly crushed)

Salt

Sugar

White vinegar

Oil for tempering

 

How to do:

1. Boil and dice potatoes.

2. In a pan, add a little oil.

3. Pinch and throw a few red peppers and crushed black peppercorns. Saute.

4. Bring the flame down and add salt, a little sugar and vinegar.

5. Add potatoes and mix well and serve.

 

It has the spice of peppers and the tang of vinegar :-)

[There is a possibility of charring the sugar if the flame is not simmered]

How many peppers, how much sugar, salt and vinegar? Depends on your taste :-)
