Patatas a la Importancia

Patatas a la Importancia is a delightful vegan Spanish dish featuring thick, crispy potato slices, elegantly coated in a flavorful tomato and garlic sauce. This dish is a comforting and satisfying side, perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

• Potatoes - 500 grams
• Garlic - 4 cloves, minced
• Tomato sauce - 200 ml
• Vegetable broth - 200 ml
• Olive oil - 4 tablespoons
• Chickpea flour - 4 tablespoons
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Fresh parsley - for garnish

Steps

1. Peel and slice the potatoes into thick rounds, about 1 cm each.
2. In a bowl, mix chickpea flour with a pinch of salt and pepper.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
4. Coat each potato slice in the chickpea flour mixture, then fry in the pan until golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
5. In the same pan, add the remaining olive oil and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant, about 1 minute.
6. Stir in the tomato sauce, vegetable broth, and paprika, simmering for about 5 minutes.
7. Return the fried potato slices to the pan, ensuring they are well coated with the sauce. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing the potatoes to absorb the flavors.
8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
