Patatas Revolconas This week we want to share with you this recipe that we have enjoyed for lunch, Las Patatas Revolconas. This is a very traditional recipe that is usually prepared with pork crackling, but to make it a lighter dish we have replaced the bacon with mushrooms :-) This recipe was originally part of the daily culinary repertoire of peasants and poor people. Today it is a commonly served as a “tapa” in bars and restaurants, mainly in the communities of Salamanca, Ávila and Extremadura, where this dish is most typical.

INGREDIENTS: * 14 oz (400 grams) potatoes * 3 or 4 cloves of garlic * 2 cups (7 oz or 200 grams) of mushrooms * 2/3 cups (100 grams) of diced Spanish Serrano Ham * 1 teaspoon of pimento dulce ( smoked paprika) * Olive oil * 1 bay leaf * 2 sprigs of Rosemary * Salt * Pepper wPREPARATION: * We are going to peel the potatoes and cut them into slices. We cook them in salted water with a washed bay leaf for 25 to 30 minutes, drain them and reserve. * We peel the garlic cloves and cut them into slices. * Now we will clean the mushrooms, wash them without letting them soak and cut them into pieces if they are large. * We are now going to sauté the garlic in a pan with a few drops of oil for 2 to 3 minutes, until they get golden brown, then add the chunks of ham. Stir and toast and then add the mushrooms, 1 washed sprig of Rosemary, and continue cooking for 10 minutes. * We will season with salt/pepper and set aside half of this preparation. * We then flavor the rest of the mushrooms with the pimentón (paprika), stir and add the potatoes. * We will cook for 2 minutes and then crush the potatoes. * To present our dish, fill 4 pastry rings with the mixture, then remove the rings. * Spread some mushrooms over them, decorate with the remaining Rosemary and serve at the table. And if you accompany these “patatas revolconas” with a fried egg, the recipe will be perfect. Happy Week to you all and enjoy it very much :-)
