Pipi e Patate

Pipi e Patate is a very loved Southern Italian dish best served hot or cold, often found in my mum’s fridge and best accompanied by Italian crunchy bread. It involves cooking a mix of brown onion, red potatoes, and capsicums in extra virgin olive oil, seasoned with garlic, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. The potatoes are cut into wedges and cooked with a pinch of salt added at each stage of incorporating vegetables. The dish is simmered until nearly soft, with careful stirring to prevent the potatoes from breaking. After cooking, the lid is removed to reduce the liquid, and oregano is added. Basil can be added before or after cooling, enhancing the flavor of this simple yet delicious Italian recipe.
