Preparation

  1. Cut the potatoes into 1 1/4-inch cubes. Drop them in cold water to prevent discoloration.
  2. Core and remove the seeds and the veins of the sweet peppers. Cut them into 1/4-inch cubes.
  3. Drain the potatoes and add them to a saucepan with water to cover and salt. Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 1/2 minutes. Drain.
  4. Heat the oil in a large, nonstick skillet. Add the potatoes, and cook over medium-high heat, shaking the skillet and stirring occasionally so that the potatoes cook evenly. Cook for about 5 minutes until they begin to brown.
  5. Add the red peppers, onions, salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, shaking the skillet until the potatoes are nicely browned.
  6. Drain the potatoes into a colander. Return them to the skillet and add the butter. Cook for a few minutes, shaking and tossing the skillet. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
