Very tasty with fish

Peel, wash, and dice the potatoes. Place them in a sufficiently large pot with a good pinch of salt and just cover with water. Bring to a boil and simmer over low heat until tender. Meanwhile, in a small pan, lightly fry the chopped bell peppers in 2 tablespoons of the oil from the jar, along with the saffron and the very finely chopped chili. Drain the diced potatoes and mash them with the remaining oil and milk until creamy. Add the mixture from the pan and season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Stir well with a whisk once more. Goes very well with fried or steamed fish.
