Advice

Making potato stew is a great way to make a hearty, comforting meal. To make a tasty and flavorful stew, start by sautéing some onions, garlic and carrots in oil. Once they are softened, add the potatoes and seasonings such as rosemary and thyme. Cook the potatoes until they are softened, then add some stock and simmer until the potatoes are cooked. Finally, add some cream and your favorite herbs to finish off the stew. To make the stew even more flavorful, try adding some smoked paprika, which adds a smoky flavor that pairs perfectly with the potatoes. Finally, make sure to adjust the seasoning to your taste before serving. Enjoy!
