Ingredients

  1. 4medium potatoes
  2. Olive oil
  3. Salt
  4. --- For the brava sauce:
  5. 1/2sweet onion
  6. 3chili peppers
  7. 1 tbspfried tomato sauce
  8. 1 cancrushed tomatoes
  9. 1 1/2 tsphot paprika
  10. 1 tbspsoy sauce
  11. 1 tspblack pepper

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Start by making the sauce. Heat some olive oil in a pan and grate the onion. Sauté with the chili peppers for a few minutes, then season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    When the onion is golden, add the hot paprika and saffron threads. Sauté for a few seconds without burning, then add the fried tomato sauce.

  3. 3

    After a couple of minutes, add the crushed tomatoes and let simmer for about 45 minutes on low heat. Remove the chili peppers, add the soy sauce, adjust the salt and pepper, and blend well for a smoother texture.

  4. 4

    The trick with the potatoes is to cook them twice. First, cut them into uneven chunks and boil in plenty of boiling water for 10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Drain the water well (otherwise the oil will splatter) and fry them in hot olive oil until golden. Turn up the heat to high to remove any excess oil.

  6. 6

    Place them on a plate with paper towels, and they're ready to serve with a generous amount of our brava sauce on top😋 I also made homemade mayonnaise! I hope you enjoy them as much as we did. I prepared them for a family meal, and they were a hit.
