Peel and slice potatoes into 1/4-inch (6 mm), then cut them into quarters.
Pre-cook potatoes for 4-5 minutes in boiling water. They should not be tender or too soft.
Pre-cook broccoli florets and frozen green peas separately for 3-4 minutes and cool them down in cold water. Drain them before using them.
Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and sliced potato and fry them for 10-12 minutes. Gently toss and turn them.
Once they are crispy and lightly brown, set them aside. Reserve the oil.
Add 2 Tbsp reserved oil and chopped leeks to the same skillet. Cook them for 2 minutes.
Add paprika powders (sweet and hot). Stir well.
Add white wine vinegar. Stir well and let it warm up.
Add fried potatoes, pre-cooked broccoli, and green peas and gently stir them to warm them up.
Top tips:
Fry potato slices in one layer to save time. Should you have a smaller pan, fry potatoes in batches.
You can use classic paprika powder and hot chili flakes if you don't have the smoked version.
