Sautéed potatoes and vegetables in olive oil are an inexpensive, quick side dish made with everyday ingredients. Shred the potatoes and carrot into thin matchsticks, then sauté them in stages in olive oil with onion, stirring constantly and adding bell pepper strips along the way. Soy sauce, a splash of vinegar, sweet paprika, and black pepper round out the flavor. Cover the potatoes for a few minutes at the end, then sprinkle with herbs before serving. Prepare all the ingredients ahead of time, as the sautéing goes quickly.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Prepare all the ingredients ahead of time, since the cooking goes quickly. Cut the bell pepper into short strips. Grate the carrot and potatoes, or use a julienne grater to cut them into thin matchsticks. Slice the onion into rings.

  2. Heat the oil in a skillet and sauté the onion briefly, just a few minutes. Add the carrot and cook, stirring constantly, for another 2–3 minutes.

    When the carrot starts to change color, add the shredded potatoes and cook, stirring constantly. Once the potatoes are cooked, stir in the bell pepper and cook for about another minute. Add the black pepper and sweet paprika, pour in the soy sauce mixed with the vinegar, and stir thoroughly.

Tip: Rinse the shredded potatoes in a strainer under cold water, then squeeze them dry in a kitchen towel to keep them from darkening or clumping and help them brown nicely in the pan.
