    This Potato and Ham Ragu works great as a main dish serve with some garlic bread, but also makes a terrific side dish.

    Ham and a rich creamy sauce that is flavoured with brandy, oregano, garlic and leeks turn potatoes into a gourmet dish.  I used fresh baby potatoes in my recipe, you can't beat that fresh from the garden taste, but if those aren't available any type of potatoes will work cut into bite size pieces.
