Potatoes

Inspired by www.andreasrecipes.com Papas Fritas con Rajas, we had this with dinner tonight.

Sweet potato
New potato
(both sliced into 1/4 to 3/8" thick slices
1 poblano pepper, seeded and sliced
1 med-large onion, sliced
1 t garlic, minced (or two cloves, or to taste)
paprika
pepper
salt

saute onions on med-high to high until a little soft, then add potatoes. cover, cook for about 20-30 min stirring every few minutes, until soft. The sweet potato may disintegrate into mash by the time the new potatoes are done. Add the peppers when the sweet potatoes are soft but the regular potatoes are not, so they'll have time to cook down a bit and spread their flavor around. When all potatoes are soft, add salt and pepper to taste, perhaps 1/4 of lime's worth of juice and chopped cilantro, and serve.

Steam is important to actually getting these potatoes cooked without developing a blackened outer shell. Cover early in the cooking process until cooked a bit, and then let them crisp up a little.
