Patatas Alioli Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch.

2. 2

   Boil the Potatoes

   Place the potato pieces in a large pot and cover them with water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender but not falling apart.

3. 3

   Drain and Cool

   Once cooked, drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly while you prepare the alioli.

4. 4

   Make the Alioli

   In a mortar and pestle, mash the garlic cloves with a pinch of salt until it forms a paste. If you don’t have a mortar, you can use a food processor.

5. 5

   Emulsify the Mixture

   Add the egg yolk to the garlic paste and mix well. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously until the mixture thickens and emulsifies into a creamy consistency.

6. 6

   Add Flavor

   Stir in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as necessary.

7. 7

   Serve

   On a serving platter, arrange the boiled potatoes and drizzle the alioli generously over the top. Sprinkle with paprika and fresh parsley before serving.
