Steps:

• In a skillet, saute the onion, and garlic until onion is translucent, 4-5 minutes or so.
• Stir in the tomatoes, followed by the potatoes, along with the salt and pepper (amounts are really to suit your taste).
• Cover, turn heat to low, for about 15 minutes, or as soon as the potatoes become tender.
• Uncover, raise heat to medium, and cook down the sauce until thickened, and mostly cooked away.
• Remove from heat, check the salt again, and add the cilantro and vinegar.
• Serve at room temperature.

PORTUGUESE POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• When potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
• Place potato cubes in a bowl; sprinkle with vinegar while they are still warm.
• In a large skillet over medium heat; add the olive oil and let it get heated.
• Add the sausages; stir/saute for about 4 minutes or until lightly browned.
• Use a slotted spoon and transfer sausages to a paper-towel lined plate.
• To make the dressing: in a small mixing bowl, whisk the vinegar, salt and pepper together until the salt dissolves.
• Whisk in the mustard and anchovy paste until well blended.
• Gradually whisk in 4 tablespoons olive oil until an emulsion forms.
• If the dressing is too thick, go ahead and whisk in the remaining olive oil; set dressing aside.
• Add the sausages, garbanzo beans, bell pepper, onion, celery, and parsley to the potatoes.
• Pour the dressing over the mixture; toss gently until thoroughly coated.
• May serve right away or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
• Bring to room temp before serving.
