Made this tonight. Did not do the potatoes. I used Italian stew tomatoes instead of the tomato sauce. Followed everything else. I liked this so much.The olives in the races together give such a sweet salty taste that's really very delectable. I really like the peas in it also just a great stew. Will make it again!
