Serving tips
What to serve with patatas bravas? Traditionally, patatas bravas are served as part of a tapas, but you can get creative with how you eat them. Serve alongside honey wintered salador inside a Yorkshire pudding for a twist on a Spanish classic. In need of some more inspiration? Here are some other ways you can serve patatas bravas: Swap out classic roast potatoes for patatas bravas to spice up your Sunday roast dinner. Plate your patatas bravas alongside fried chicken wings and salad for a scrumptious midweek meal. If you’re after a filling meal, pair patatas bravas with other tapas dishes. Try it alongside a Spanish omelette (tortilla Espanola), garlic shrimp (gambas al ajillo) or ham croquettes (croquetas de jamon). You’ll be spoilt for choice! Try fish and chips the Spanish way! Swap out your regular chips with patatas bravas. It may just become your favourite way to eat a British classic. Handy tip: Save some of the patatas bravas sauce to dip your fish in. Now that we’ve tickled your taste buds, it’s time to get cooking. Why not try out our other recipes or check out our desserts? At Aunt Bessie’s, we have something for everyone!
