Preparation Steps

  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

    Season and Fry Potatoes

    In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the potatoes and season with smoked paprika and salt. Fry until golden and crispy, about 15-20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Harissa Aioli

    In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, harissa paste, minced garlic, and lemon juice until smooth. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Grill the Padron Peppers

    In a separate skillet or grill pan, add a bit of olive oil and grill the padron peppers until blistered and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the potatoes are crispy, serve them topped with the tomato sauce, grilled padron peppers, and a side of harissa aioli for dipping.
