Notes and Instructions

This was my husband Tom’s favorite recipe this month and pronounced that we could “have this again”, code for “please make this for me again because I loved it”. We are so lucky that the potatoes in the garden started coming in just in time for this one! Spicy! Reduce the amount of pepper flakes if you want it milder, but do not omit them completely or it will lose too much character
