This recipe for chorizo patatas bravas appeared in this month's Sainsbury's magazine. As I post this recipe, it's not on the Sainsbury's recipe website.
We love Spanish food especially chorizo and tapas dishes...this one ticks all the boxes! The addition of the chorizo to the dish adds extra smoky warmth and texture to an already full of flavour recipe. The roast baby potatoes are topped with a tomato sauce that has a delicious smoky warmth and the aioli on the side has a subtle hum of garlic and is creamy and cooling. They go perfectly together...I could eat the whole lot myself!!!
Tip

At the heart of Spanish cooking are iconic dishes like paella, a flavourful rice dish often made with seafood, chicken, or rabbit, and tapas, small plates of appetisers that showcase a variety of tastes and textures, from patatas bravas (fried potatoes with spicy tomato sauce) to gambas al ajillo (garlic shrimp). You'll find all of these and more in this delicious selection of Spanish recipes!!
