Potatoes with Peppers and Chorizo

This rustic Spanish-inspired dish of potatoes with peppers and chorizo is a wonderful example of how simple, high-quality ingredients can create a deeply satisfying meal. By breaking the potatoes into rough chunks rather than slicing them cleanly, you create more surface area to soak up the smoky oils from the cured pork and the acidity of the white wine. It is a vibrant, dairy-free option that works perfectly as a seasonal side dish or as part of a traditional tapas spread.

Packed with savoury flavour from the slowly softened onions and green peppers, this recipe is incredibly versatile. The gentle heat from the chillies infuses the oil without overpowering the other ingredients, making it a family-friendly favourite. Enjoy it hot from the frying pan for a comforting supper, or serve it at room temperature as part of a Mediterranean-style lunch.

How to make Potatoes with Peppers and Chorizo

Make a crosswise cut halfway through 1 potato, then break it apart. Turn potato cut sides down, then cut and break halves in same manner. Repeat halving and breaking until pieces are about 1 1/2 inches. Repeat with remaining potatoes.

Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté potatoes with salt, turning occasionally, until browned and just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer potatoes with a slotted spoon to a bowl, reserving oil in skillet.

Cut a 1 1/2-inch lengthwise slit in each chilli, then add to skillet along with onion, peppers, and chorizo and reduce heat to moderate. Cook, uncovered, stirring frequently, until vegetables are softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Add wine and boil until reduced to about 40g , 3 to 4 minutes. Discard chillies, then add pepper mixture to potatoes along with salt and pepper to taste and toss well. Serve warm or at room temperature.
