First, when you are ready to cook in a heavy bottom pan, add oil over medium heat. Second add in the chopped potatoes and let them saute for 4 to 5 minutes.

Again stir well. Next cover the pan for about 3 to 4 minutes until tomatoes are cooked on medium heat. Open the lid, add in bell peppers and stir. Look the bell peppers on low heat for 4 to 5 minutes until they soften. Next add in potatoes and stir well. Let them cook in the spices on low heat for about 2 minutes.
