Nick's Patatas Bravas

Ingredients

• 300g McCain frozen crispy bites
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 2 fat cloves garlic, peeled (or 3 smaller ones)
• 2 heaped tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
• 2 heaped tbsp hot smoked paprika
• Sea salt flakes

Method

• Preheat the oven to gas mark 8, 230°C
• Toss the frozen crispy bites in the olive oil
• Place the oiled bites on a baking tray
• Bake on a high shelf in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until very crisp

• Crush the garlic and 1/2 tsp salt flakes to a paste in a pestle and mortar
• Mix it with the mayonnaise, wine vinegar and paprika
• When the potatoes are cooked, remove them to a cold serving plate
• Let them cool (so they are warm rather than hot)
• Spoon the sauce here and there over them
• Serve with other tapas or as a side dish to a main course
