How to make Potato Stew
- Step 1
Peel and wash the potatoes, then cut them into small cubes. Place them in a pot with enough water to cover them, but not more. Bring to a boil. If the water reduces during cooking, add more as needed, but avoid adding too much, as this will make the dish overly watery.
- Step 2
After boiling for 10 minutes, add the finely chopped fried garlic, toasted almonds, and fried bread cut into small pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Cook everything for an additional 5 minutes.
- Step 3
Separately, sauté the onion until golden. Add the bell pepper cut into strips, along with the chopped parsley and basil. Then, add the peeled and mashed tomatoes, stirring for 2 minutes. Season to taste.
- Step 4
Serve the potatoes and pour the second preparation (the tomato mixture) over each plate.
