Arakas--Greek Potato and Pea Stew
This is a traditional Greek dish; fragrant peas & potato stew seasoned tempered with sauteed onions, tomato paste, herbs and spices. It's one of my favorite go to autumn & winter dishes! One of my shortcuts is to microwave the potatoes. I make this rustic style, using baby potatoes, and I leave on the skin. Drizzle with lemon juice and enjoy as a side dish or as a main course with feta cheese and bread.

Easy! Potato and Bacon Stew Easy! Potato and Bacon Stew
This is an easy stewed dish that my busy mother used to make. It's now a staple in my household. My mother's version only had bacon and potatoes in it but I've added vegetables to make it tastier.Beware of burning, since all you have to do is leave it on the stove.Using 'Wagaya no Banou Tsuyu' or any Japanese noodle dipping sauce should be fine. Adding 1 tablespoon of this to the pot will make it more delicious. Recipe by Fujihime mama
