Wipe or scrape the char off the pepper removing the skins. Seed the pepper and thinly slice.
• Heat 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium to medium-high heat. When the oil ripples, add the zucchini, chiles, frying peppers, onions, potatoes, garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme and saute the vegetables until tender-crisp, 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the tomatoes and roasted peppers and allow the tomatoes to breakdown a few minutes. Stir in enough stock to desired consistency - as thin or thick as you like.
• Cool completely and store for make-ahead meal.
• Reheat over moderate heat, stirring occasionally. Serve in shallow bowls with shredded or torn sweet basil and crusty, warm bread.

• When water is boiling, add potato slices and simmer for 10-15 minutes (until slightly tender, but not done). Rinse.
• In a bowl mix together the remaining ingredients, ensuring that they are well blended -I use my magic bullet to blend the ingredients.
• Then add the rinsed potatoes. ensure that they are well coated with the oil mixture.
• Spread out the slices on a baking pan and place on the top rack for about 45 minute You will need to stir the potatoes around occasionally, so that they are evenly baked. I usually end with 5-10 minutes on broil, as we like them very crispy.

SPICY GARLIC POTATO NOODLES

Steps:

• Combine 1 cup potato starch, salt, and vegetable oil in a bowl. Add a splash of boiling water at a time, stirring between additions, until you get a perfectly textured dough.
• Transfer to a work surface dusted with a little potato starch. Working quickly while the dough is still warm, knead, adding more potato starch if necessary, until smooth and elastic.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Set out a large bowl of cold water.
• While the water is boiling, roll dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Cut into 1/4-inch noodles with a pizza cutter. Separate noodles.
• Add potato noodles (in batches if desired) and cook until they float, about 1 minute. Transfer to the bowl of cold water. Repeat to cook remaining noodles.
• Whisk oyster sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, sesame oil, sugar, and Sriracha together in a bowl.
• Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and sizzle for 15 seconds. Add 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes and green onions; stir-fry for a just few seconds. Before the garlic starts to brown, add in the potato noodles. It's okay that some water comes into the pan as it will stop the cooking process and prevent the garlic from burning.
• Add sauce and stir until noodles are coated. Cook until noodles are heated through and sauce starts to simmer, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 1/4 cup chopped cilantro.
• Divide noodles into 2 bowls and garnish with more cilantro and red pepper flakes.
