Tips, changes and questions from people who cooked this recipe.
Wash and trim the vegetables. Cut them into roughly 1-inch pieces; keep potato pieces similar in size so they cook evenly.
Heat half the oil in the frying pan over medium heat. Sauté the vegetables, working in batches if necessary, then transfer them to the cooking pot.
Cook the onion and tomatoes in the remaining oil. Stir in the parsley, salt and pepper, then add this mixture and the measured water to the vegetables.
Cover and simmer gently until the vegetables, especially the potatoes, are tender and almost all the water has evaporated. Stir occasionally and lower the heat if the bottom starts to catch. If the pot dries before the potatoes are tender, add only enough extra water to prevent scorching and continue cooking.
Serve hot as a vegetable side dish. A separate meat accompaniment is optional and is not part of this recipe.
