Instructions

  1. Peel and cut the potatoes into 5 cm (2-inch) pieces.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large cooking pot over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and cook until lightly golden all around about 5-6 minutes.
  3. Remove the potatoes from the pot with a slotted spoon. Set aside on a plate.
  4. In the same pot add the onion, garlic, and allspice berries. Turn the heat to low and cook until softened.
  5. Add the tomato paste and cook 2-3 minutes more stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon.
  6. Pour in the wine and scrape the bottom of the pot well. Give it a minute or two for the alcohol to evaporate. Then add the potatoes back into the pot.
  7. Pour in 2 cups of hot water. Or 1 ½ cups of hot water along with ½ cup of vegetable stock. Add also the bay leaves, sweet paprika, and ground cloves. Once it starts to bubble, put the lid on the pot and simmer for about 40-50 minutes on low heat.
  8. Depending on how starchy are the potatoes you are using, you may need to add a splash of water towards the last minutes of cooking. Prick a potato with a toothpick to ensure it's cooked. If the potatoes are nice and soft but the sauce hasn't thickened sufficiently, cook for a few minutes over medium or medium-high heat uncovered.
  9. Serve with feta cheese and olives!
