The Best Patatas Bravas Ever Recipes

PATATAS BRAVAS RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the potatoes and white vinegar in a large pot along with two quarts of water. Bring the pot to a boil; cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until the potatoes are just barely tender. Drain and allow to cool.
• While the potatoes are cooling, prepare the garlic aioli: in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, and both pressed garlic cloves until well-combined. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss the cooled potatoes with the canola oil, salt, pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of the hot paprika. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes, stirring the potatoes once or twice to promote even cooking.
• Meanwhile, prepare the easy patatas bravas sauce: Heat two tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in a large saucepan. Place the canned tomatoes, onions, garlic cloves, remaining teaspoon of hot paprika, and sugar in the bowl of a large food processor or blender. Pulse until pureed. Carefully transfer the mixture to the saucepan (it may splatter a bit); cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce has darkened in color and has lost its raw onion taste, about 5 to 6 minutes. Taste and add salt and pepper as desired.
• Serve the roasted potatoes topped with generous portions of the "aioli" and patatas bravas sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve hot.
