Potatoes Bravas
Potatoes bravas is what happens when crispy potatoes meet tangy, spicy tomato sauce. It's a staple dish at tapas bars, but easier (and less oily) to make at home with time-saving microwave cookware (hello, Steamers). Keep the potato skins on to bump up the fibre content—about half of a potato's fibre content is from the skin. Pro tip: don't skip the Roasted Garlic Aioli for dunking!
Ingredients
- 6 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1 pkg Spanish Rice Seasoning or Taco Seasoning
- 1 1⁄2 cups water
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1⁄2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Preparation
- Chop unpeeled potatoes, then place in Multipurpose Steamer. Cover and microwave on high for 12–14 min, or until fork tender.
- Meanwhile, combine seasoning, water, tomato paste, and vinegar in Wok set over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring often. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low so mixture is simmering.
- Add potatoes to pan and toss with sauce. Simmer until sauce is thickened and potatoes are coated, about 2 min.
- Serve with a dollop of aioli, if desired.
