Potato And Green Olive Stew Food

COUNTRY-STYLE GREEK POTATO STEW RECIPE (PATATES YAHNI)

Steps:

• To prepare this delicious Greek potato stew recipe (patates yahni), start by preparing your vegetables. Peel and cut the potatoes into 2.5 cm chunks, finely chop (or grate) the onion and garlic and set aside. Peel the tomatoes and grate. You may find it easier to peel the tomatoes if you blanch them first for 1 minute in hot water. (For this Greek potato stew recipe, it is best to use fresh tomatoes rather than canned.)
• Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and onion and sauté until softened. Stir in the garlic and sauté for 1 more minute. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 more minute.
• In the same pot add the grated tomatoes, the potatoes, sprinkle with chopped parsley and season with salt and pepper. Add just enough warm water to cover the potatoes (whilst stirring ocassionally) and bring to the boil. Turn the heat down to medium, cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
• Greek potato stew (Patates Yahni) is best served while still warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!

POTATO AND OLIVE STEW WITH TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large, heavy and deep non-reactive skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat and saute the potatoes until they turn a golden brown on all sides, about five minutes. They don't need to cook through because they will continue cooking in the sauce.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Remove potatoes from skillet and add onions, saute until transparent, about three minutes, then add the garlic and chili pepper. After a few seconds, pour in the wine and add the oregano, tomatoes and olives. Cook for one minute, then remove from heat.
• Place potatoes in clay or glass ovenproof pan that can hold them in one layer. Pour sauce over them and bake uncovered for 30 to 45 minutes -- adding a little water if needed -- or until the potatoes are tender. Taste after 15 minutes and add salt if needed -- the olives are quite salty -- or more chili pepper. Sprinkle with parsley and serve while still hot.
