Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1.5 pounds, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes Yukon Gold potatoes
- 15 ounces canned diced tomatoes
- 1 cup vegetable stock
- 0.5 cup, pitted and halved green olives
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (plus more for garnish) fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
- 0.25 teaspoon (or to taste) black pepper
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 5–7 minutes, or until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the cubed potatoes, canned diced tomatoes (with their juice), and vegetable stock to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Mix in the dried thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the ragout simmer gently for 25–30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Stir in the green olives and cook for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and black pepper if needed.
Serve the Provencale Potato Ragout warm, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired. This dish pairs beautifully with crusty bread or a side salad.
