(Sort of) Patatas Bravas
Serves 3-6 as a tapas
Here it is, my final dish from the tapas feast and when it comes to tapas, patatas bravas is a staple. This is a bastardised version but still really good. It’s less oily than normal and the spicy sauce is simple. I’m not going to lie, I couldn’t stop eating it… like I say, it could serve six, but we (mainly me) polished it off between the three of us!
- Ingredients:
- 500g new potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 heaped tsp paprika
- 2 roasted red peppers, finely diced
- Parsley, finely chopped
Step 1: Cook the potatoes in cold salted water, bring to the boil and then simmer until a knife can easily pass through them.
Step 2: Drain the potatoes and slice in half.
Step 3: Heat the oil in a frying pan on a medium-high heat and add the halved potatoes, allowing to sizzle and crisp for a couple of minutes.
Step 4: Add the crushed garlic, paprika and chopped peppers, and turn over the potatoes and continue to cook for a couple more minutes. Scatter the dish with some fresh parsley before serving.
