Ingredients

Papa arrugadas

  • 1 lb of fingerling or small potatoes
  • ¼ cup of salt
  • Water

Brava Sauce

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ cup onions diced
  • 2 cloves garlic diced
  • 1 14.5 oz diced tomatoes in a can
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • In a large pot, add the potatoes and fill the pot with enough water to submerge the potatoes. Add the salt.
  • Place over high heat and allow the water to boil. Cook in boiling water for 15 minutes or until the potato is tender to a fork.
  • While the potatoes are boiling, go ahead and make your brava sauce. Coat a pan with two tablespoons of olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the ½ a cup of diced onions and 2 diced garlic cloves to the oil and sauté for about five minutes, until the onions are soft and slightly translucent.
  • Add the can of diced tomatoes, along with the paprika, salt, onion powder, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil and then lower the heat to medium and allow the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes, until all the flavors are combined and the sauce is slightly reduced.
  • After 5 minutes, place the sauce in a food processor and puree. Set aside.
  • Once the potatoes are done cooking, drain the water and place the potatoes in the pot over low-medium heat, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are covered in a crusted layer of salt.
  • Serve with the sauce and enjoy!
