Ingredients:
5-6 Yukon gold potatoes
Extra virgin olive oil from Spain
-The (brava) sauce-
2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil from Spain
1 yellow onion
3 garlic cloves
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground pepper
1 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1 1/2 tsp sweet paprika
2 tbsp flour (or corn starch)
1 1/4 cup broth ( I combined water + 1 tbsp vegan chicken bouillon paste…vegetable broth works too)
(optional) 1/2 tbsp hot sauce (I used a truffle hot sauce)
Other ingredients
Fresh cilantro or parsley
(optional) vegan mayo or vegan aioli
Flakey sea salt (optional)
Quick vegan aioli
1/2 cup vegan mayo
2 tbsp plant milk
Juice of 1 lemon
3 garlic cloves, minced well
1. Begin by peeling your potatoes, chopping into chunks then putting in a bowl and covering with cold water. Preheat your oven to 450 and once ready, remove the potatoes from the water then place into a pot and over with fresh water and add a few big pinches of salt. Bring to a boil and cook potatoes for 15-18 minutes or until fork tender.
2. Drain the potatoes then transfer to a baking sheet and drizzle generously with (oliveoilworldtourus) Extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle over salt and pepper then toss with hands and place in oven to bake for 35-45 minutes until crispy… Check on them at the 30 minute mark and flip potatoes so they get evenly crispy.
3. While the potatoes are cooking, make the brava sauce… Mince 3 garlic cloves and dice onion. Add 2 tbsp (oliveoilworldtourus) Extra virgin olive oil to a skillet over medium low heat and once hot add in onions and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes then add in sweet paprika, smokey paprika, salt & pepper…mix into the onions and garlic and then add in flour. If the mixture is rather dry you can add in another tbsp of olive oil. Cook on low for 1-2 minutes…then slowly add in broth. Add about 1/3 in, mixing as your pour, and then pour another 1/3 in, continuously mixing…adding the last bit of broth and cooking for an additional 2-4 minutes until sauce thickness.
