to taste Black pepper
3 tbsp Olive oil
1 pcs Onion
2 clove Garlic
225 g Tomatoes in their own juice
1 tbsp Tomato paste

Heat olive oil in a skillet and sauté the diced onion for about 5 minutes until soft. Add the minced garlic, tomatoes, tomato paste, paprika, chili powder, and a pinch of sugar with salt.

Arrange the hot potatoes on serving plates, generously drizzle with tomato sauce, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
