Classic Patatas Bravas

Spain's tapas bar classic — crisp fried or roasted potatoes get both a spicy tomato sauce and a swirl of garlicky aioli, the contrast of the two sauces is the whole point.

Ingredients

1kgpotatoes, cubed
1.5 cupsspicy tomato sauce
1/2 cupaioli

Instructions

1

Fry or roast the potato cubes until properly crisp and deep golden on every side, since a pale potato will not hold up under two sauces.

2

Drizzle the hot potatoes generously with the spicy tomato sauce first.

3

Let the sauce settle into the crevices before the aioli goes on.

4

Finish with a swirl of garlicky aioli over the top and serve immediately, while the potatoes are still hot enough to contrast with the cool sauce.
