Clean onions and leeks and chop them finely. Remove seeds from peppers, wash and cut into strips. Peel potatoes, clean with absorbent
kitchen paper and cube them. Put all the vegetables in a saucepan together with wine, 2 glasses of water, puréed tomatoes,
tarragon, chives and fresh thyme (only if you like it). Season to taste with salt and cook over a gentle flame, half-covered, stirring
now and then. Keep on cooking until vegetables are tender; add other warm water if necessary. Meanwhile wash basil and pat dry with
absorbent kitchen paper. When cooking is finished, remove the saucepan from the gas and add basil, chopped, and olive oil and stir.
Serve hot or warm.
This side dish is the ideal thing to accompany roasted chicken or turkey breasts or veal or pork meat. But you can serve it as one-plate meal too.
