Ingredients
-
4 potatoes, very large, peeled (or use more, smaller potatoes)
-
2 cups spinach, washed, chopped, and pushed firmly into the cups
-
1 cup oil (this sounds like too much, cut down by all means)
-
4 garlic cloves (or equal in mashed garlic or dried garlic flakes)
-
2 cups garbanzo beans
-
1 red pepper, seeded, diced
-
1 green pepper, seeded, diced
-
1 medium onion, peeled and chopped
-
1 teaspoon oregano (or use 1 tblsp fresh)
-
2 teaspoons dried basil (withstands heat better than fresh)
-
Instructions
- Cut potatoes into chunks and boil about 8 minutes in a little water.
- Add spinach and cook until potato chunks are tender, then drain well in a sieve or colander.
- Heat the oil in a large, deep saucepan until very hot.
- Add the potatoes, spinach, beans and remaining ingredients.
- Fry until potatoes are creamy and ingredients are cooked through. This will be quite quick in the hot oil. (Decide yourself on the quantity of oil needed).
- The recipe says merely to sprinkle with red pepper powder, simmer 3 minutes, and serve!
- I'm not sure, but it might need some draining. Follow your chef's instincts. These recipes are never perfect as given!
