6 Reviews of Spanish Potatoes

From: KristinV

I read through all of the reviews for this recipe and really took on board the advice that it could be 'bland'. To try and avoid this I used minced garlic and mixed it in with the tomato mixture, along with a tsp of salt. I tasted on of the potatoes just before putting the lemon juice on them and was still a bit sceptical... It seemed as though something was missing. But 5 minutes later the flavour had worked perfectly!! The lemon really mustn't be skipped as it is what makes these potatoes fabulous! Thanks for a real keeper Sarah Jayne! Made for ZWT5 Family Picks

    I don't know if I was just expecting too much flavor because of the garlic, tomato paste, and smoked Spanish paprika, but I agree they were a little bland. I think they could use more of the tomato paste and paprika. We couldn't really taste the garlic much either. We ended up putting ketchup on them and eating them like home fries. Made for the Epicurean Queens ZWT5: Portugal/Spain.

    Simplemente delicioso! I made this with Portuguese Chicken and put both dishes in at the same time and temperature for an oven meal. Don't forget to sprinkle on salt and pepper for step 4, and the lemon juice for step 5. I also put foil onto cooking sheet and lightly sprayed it with cooking spray so it would be easier for clean up detail-am kind of lazy. Made for Zaar Chow Hounds during ZWT5. Thanks Sarah_Jayne for sharing.

    These were okay, but a little bland. The cooking time was perfect, the were ready in exactly 40 minutes and looked wonderul. I think it would be helpful if you edited the recipe to add the lemon juice that you mention in step 5. Made for ZWT5 by on of the Cooks with Dirty Faces.

    These were very good. I only made a slight change. I added a teaspoon of oregano and 3 extra cloves of garlic, but that is due to the fact that we love garlic. They came out wonderful. We had it with the cheese stuffed meatloaf it was a wonderful meal.

    A pretty, and nice tasting dish that I enjoyed this evening! I used the smoked paprika and enjoyed its flavor. I also halved the recipe. Sabroso! Made for the Epicurean Queens for Zaar World Tour 2009.
