Potato Bravas

By Esther Boateng

Create your own tapas meal with this popular tapas recipe, potato bravas, made with potatoes and a rich tomato sauce flavored with herb and spices. Typically, the potatoes are shallow-fried, but feel free to cook them however you like. I prefer to roast them in the oven while I prepare the tomato sauce.

Season your sauce with a selection of herbs and spices. If you serve this to a large group with a range of different tolerances to spicy food, it’s best to err on the side of caution and use either minimal or medium heat. Serve your potato bravas with sautéed garlicky shrimp or top it with ground lamb or beef.
