Poor Man’s Potatoes
Recipe Book: Nigel Slater - Eat
Review: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I have to say I really enjoyed this dish. It’s quite a nice comfort food style vegetarian dish.
I have made this before and the first time I made it I decided to add in a chilli 🌶 at the start.... a whole sliced chilli 🌶... maybe you might want to put a half one in instead! 😆 nevertheless it was still good.
This time I sort of stuck to the original recipe. Only alterations were that I didn’t have the normal size bell peppers so I used a few of those smaller sweet peppers to get the same amount.
Aga conversion: I kind of struggled with this conversion, I sort of toggled between both hot plates and then when it was time to cover and simmer enthusiastically, I popped the covered Aga sauté pan on the floor of the roasting oven. After 20 mins there was still loads of stock left so I gave it a bit longer uncovered on the hot plates toggling between them for roughly 10 minutes after squashing about 4 potatoes until the stock had been absorbed.
Will I make this again? Yes I think I will. Delicious. I do prefer it slightly more with a bit of sliced chilli in it though!
