Equipment

  • our Cast-iron Skillet by UnoCasa

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Potatoes
  • 5 oz Broccoli
  • 2 oz Green peas
  • 3 oz Leek
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 4 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 tsp White wine vinegar
  • ½ tsp Sweet smoked paprika powder
  • ¼ tsp Hot smoked paprika powder
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • 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.

Notes

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.
