Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 pounds waxy potatoes -- unpeeled

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 Spanish onion -- finely sliced

1 clove garlic -- chopped (optional)

sea salt and freshy ground pepper

1 cup sun-dried tomatoes -- cut into strips (7 oz.)

1 cup mixed black and green olives -- pitted

15 ounces vegetable stock

large handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley -- roughly

chopped

 

Preheat the oven to 375F. Bring a large saucepan water to a boil, add the

potatoes, and simmer for 10 minutes, until they are partly cooked. They should

still be firm when pierced with a sharp knife. Drain.

Heat the oil in a frying pan, and saute the onion and sun-dried tomatoes over

moderate heat for about 5 minutes, until soft and golden. Peel and thinly slice

the potatoes. Oil an ovenproof dish. Arrange a layer of the sliced potatoes on

the bottom, and season with chopped garlic, if desired, salt and pepper. Scatter

some of the onion slices, tomato strips and olives over them, and season well.

Arrange another layer of potato slices, then another layer of onions, tomatoes

and olives. Continue the process until all the ingredients have been used,

finishing with a layer of potatoes. Remember to season each layer.

Bring the stock to a boil, and pour it over the vegetables. Bake in the oven for

30-40 minutes, until the potatoes are cooked and crispy. Scatter fresh parsley

over the top, and serve.
