Step 3. If you use young organic potatoes, just cut them in similar size chunks with the skin, otherwise peel them before cutting.

Step 4. Peel and cut a little piece of ginger (2-3 cm) into small pieces.

Step 5. Put 2 spoons of olive oil in a big pan, add the ginger and wait for the oil to warm up. Add 2-3 spoons of fennel seeds (if you don’t like the taste of fennel you can use cumin), give it a nice stir. Add the chopped vegetables, mix it well. After that reduce the temperature, cover the pan with the lid and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes.

Step 6. When your vegetables are almost cooked, give it one more mix and add the final spices: 1 tsp of oregano, salt for your taste and freshly ground black pepper. Mix it once again and your colorful spring dish is ready!
