3. We place potato at the base of the container, the potato should be as a layer below the rest of the ingredients. We include in a second layer or floor the green pepper, the onion, the minced garlic and the salt. The third floor should be another layer of potatoes and the fourth the rest of the vegetables that are left unused (green pepper, onion, garlic and salt). We put a good jet of oil on top. (You can include a bay leaf, rosemary or thyme).
4. Stir the entire mixture so that the oil permeates everything and aromatizes along with the rest of the ingredients.
5. Then cover the container, if it does not have a lid you can use food-grade cling film.
6. Include the container in the microwave for 3 minutes at maximum power.
7. Uncover and add the water. Close it again and put it back in the microwave for 6 minutes at maximum power.
8. We open it again and now include a splash of vinegar. It is returned to the interior of the microwave again and left at maximum power for another 2 minutes.
9. Finally, return the container to another 2 minutes without a lid so that the top part is more crispy.
10. Ready to serve.
