Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 1-2 cups olive oil for frying
- salt to taste
- ½ cup homemade bravas sauce
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes, then rinse and dry them thoroughly to help them crisp up. Cut into bite-sized chunks.
- Heat the olive oil 350°F (176°C) in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and turn the heat to the lowest setting, then cook for a couple of minutes.
- Remove the potatoes from the oil with a skimmer, and let them cool in the fridge for a few minutes.
- Turn the heat up to high and reheat the oil to 350°F (176°C), then add the potatoes back into the pan. Fry until crispy and golden.
- Use a skimmer to transfer the potatoes to a paper towel-lined plate to cool, and sprinkle with salt to taste.
- Drizzle the bravas sauce over the potatoes, then serve immediately. Serve with toothpicks if desired.
Notes
- Dry the potato chunks thoroughly before frying to make them extra crispy.
- Serve with additional homemade bravas sauce or garlic alioli for a delicious flavor contrast.
- This recipe is vegan as long as the bravas sauce is vegan. Make your own with vegetable broth if you can't find vegan bravas sauce.
