Patatas Bravas Ingredients

Method

Patatas Bravas Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with a towel.

  2. 2

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and cook until golden and crispy, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

  3. 3

    Season the Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are crispy, sprinkle them with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly and remove from heat.

  4. 4

    Make the Spicy Tomato Sauce

    In a separate pan, sauté the chopped red onion over medium heat until translucent. Add the canned diced tomatoes and red chili flakes. Simmer for about 10 minutes until the sauce thickens. Season with salt to taste.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the crispy potatoes and generously drizzle the spicy tomato sauce over them. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
