Patatas bravas its a cuisine of Spain and I had seen it first on TV in my Guru's (Chef Vicky Ratnani) show gourmet central. I loved it and with few changes I made it and it turned out to be fantastic. So I am sharing with you all.
Patatas mean Potato, and bravas means wild/brave or something like that. Anyways in simple language its a dish made of fried potato chunks/halfs/cubes and served along with tangy tomato sauce made with garlic+mayo.
Ingredients:
1. 10 small potatoes.
2. 2 Red tomatoes chopped/diced
3. 4-5 cloves of garlic
4. 1 medium sized finely chopped onion
5. half inch piece of ginger (grated/finely chopped)
6. Mayonnaise (2-4 Tbspoon)
7. Oil for deep frying and sauce.
Preparation:
Put potatoes in pan and pour water on them until they are fully submerged, add a pinch of salt as well. Bring water to boil and maintain it to boil till all potatoes are boiled through. Throw away water and let potatoes cool down.
Mean while take a frying pan and add little oil to it. Once heated smash garlic cloves and put them in pan. You can finely chop/grate them as well, its your call. Saute a little and then add ginger and finely chopped onion. Saute onions until they become pinkish/transparent. Now add chopped tomatoes and keep sautieng it. Add chopped parsley/coriander (just a little) if you have it, add some basil, oregano, red chilly powder (not too much though) and turn off heat after 5-10 minutes (till tomatoes are cooked through) and then set aside.
Once Sauce cools down, add Mayonnaise to it. But how much to add? Simple just add almost same quantity of finished sauce. Mix well and set aside. you can choose to cool it in fridge.
Now peel off potatoes and dice them, you can cut them in 2 halfs or cut them in cubes. Heat off oil in in frying pan and simply shallow fry/deep fry them until they become bit stiff. After this sprinkle little salt and pepper on them.
Your patatas bravas are ready, just pour some sauce in dish, or put sauce in dipping bowl and serve with hot n crispy potatoes. It really taste good, make sure you make it tangy not spicy. Enjoy :)
