Ready to enjoy a Mediterranean classic? Let me introduce you to: Patatas con Alioli. This simple yet flavor-packed recipe combines golden, tender potatoes with a creamy, fragrant alioli sauce, creating an irresistible tapa that everyone will love.

The potatoes, cooked to perfection with a firm exterior and a tender inside, are the ideal base for the alioli. While you can use store-bought alioli for convenience like I often do, making it at home is super simple.

Tips and tricks for making boiled potatoes with alioli

Use red-skinned potatoes if you can find them.

Boiling them a day in advance develops resistant starch and gives them a firmer bite.

You can make the alioli at home using pasteurized eggs to avoid any salmonella risk.
