Linguica Stew Recipe

Time to shop. Here is what you will need:

1 or 2 lbs. of  linguica
1 medium to large onion
1 ( 16oz) can of whole tomatoes ,crushed
3 to 5 medium potatoes, sliced
1 ( 16oz) can of peas, drained
Water to cover
salt and pepper to taste

Slice the linguica or peel it crumble into a 3 or 4 quart pan. Sauté the linguica. Add chopped onions and continue to sauté to remove some of the grease from the linguica.
When the onions are opaque drain the grease. Add the water tomatoes with juice, diced potatoes, salt, and pepper. Cook for 20 minutes to 1/2 hour. Add peas and cook for about 15 minutes longer. Good with Portuguese rolls or a hard roll.

Happy eating  :-)
