Method
Preparation of Spanish Potatoes
- 1
Fry the Potatoes
In a large skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and season with salt and paprika. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Preparation of Sauce

Make the Sauce
In a saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion is translucent. Stir in the tomato sauce, red wine, paprika, and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer and let cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add chopped parsley at the end and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Grilling the Steak

Prepare and Grill the Steak
Season the Angus shell steak with salt and black pepper. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill with a little olive oil to prevent sticking. Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. In the last minute of grilling, add the slices of ham on top of the steak to heat through.
