Patatas Bravas Kid-Friendly Dinner
We are huge fans of new Irish potatoes in our house. What’s not to love? They are filling, nutritious and they can be prepared in so many ways that you can literally eat the humble spud every day of the week and not tire of it. This recipe however kind of surpasses every other potato recipe I have ever made (with the exception of my Bombay Spuds!). It is a real kid-friendly dinner and is perfect for baby led weaning too. I promise you that plates will be licked (yes I said licked) clean. Great for the washing up lol 😀
While this dish does look like a lot of work, it can be cooked, prepared and in front of your hungry little ones in less than 40 minutes! AND That is with cooking the potatoes. Just boil the potatoes, fry in a pan until golden, or you can also roast with the seasoning. Then make the rich tomato sauce which takes less than 10 minutes. Drizzle it over, add the sour cream and chives and serve. It couldn’t be easier, or yummier.
Here are some of my favourite vegetarian recipes
Once you try this dish it will fast become a weekly regular on your menu! Just you wait and see. It is:
- Easy
- DELICIOUS
- Full of colour
- Healthy
- and uses the best of Irish produce!
