Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Peel and chop the potatoes into small cubes. Dice the red and green bell peppers, and onion. Mince the garlic cloves.

  2. 2

    Heat the oil

    In a large, heavy-bottomed pan or a disco (a large round metal disc), heat the olive oil over medium heat.

  3. 3

    Cook the vegetables

    Add the chopped potatoes to the hot oil and sauté for about 10 minutes until they start to soften. Then add the diced bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Season the mixture

    Stir in the paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the spices coat the vegetables evenly.

  5. 5

    Finish cooking

    Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are fully cooked and crispy on the outside, about 10-15 more minutes.

  6. 6

    Garnish and serve

    Remove from heat, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
