Patatato is a signature specialty of the Greek island of Amorgos, in the Aegean Sea. This dish is a combination of meat and potatoes which are cooked slowly in a rich tomato sauce with onions, garlic, olive oil, and red or white wine. Goat or kid meat is the usual choice of meat for this specialty, although a combination of kid, lamb, and beef or veal may also be used.
The dish is characterized by an intense aroma and flavor due to the use of aromatic spices such as cinnamon, allspice, cloves, and pepper. Traditionally, this delicacy is prepared and served on special occasions such as weddings, fairs, and religious festivals that are celebrated on the island.
