A little kitchen wisdom

For the best texture, parboil the potatoes before frying to ensure a fluffy interior and a crunchy exterior. Use high-quality smoked paprika (pimentón) for the authentic Spanish flavor.

Keep the good going

For now. And for later.

Make it ahead

The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and reheated. The potatoes are best prepared fresh for maximum crispness.

Store & enjoy

Store potatoes and sauce separately in airtight containers. Reheat potatoes in an air fryer or oven at 400°F (204°C) to restore crispness.
