Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F. Cut potatoes into bite-sized pieces and add to a bowl. Add part of the olive oil, sweet paprika powder, and part of the smoked paprika powder. Season to taste with salt and stir to combine.

Distribute potatoes onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for approx. 20 – 30 min. at 200°C/400°F, or until crispy and golden brown. Flip potatoes after 10 – 15 min.

Meanwhile, finely dice onion. Mince garlic and finely chop parsley. Juice lemon.

Heat remaining olive oil in a frying pan set over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic, and sauté for approx. 2 – 3 min. Add flour, remaining smoked paprika powder, and sugar and stir to combine. Add lemon juice, crushed tomatoes, and chopped parsley. Allow to simmer until sauce has reduced, then remove salsa brava from heat.

Remove roasted potatoes from the oven. Serve with salsa brava and some aioli, if desired. Enjoy!

Great! I added a drizzle of chipotle aioli. :)

It tasted great. I left some potatoes without the Salsa Brava in case some preferred them plain. i served them with Salsiccia and it paired well!

So wholesome and yummy! Instead of aioili, I added kewpie mayo (japanese mayo) and together it was the burst of tangy carby goodness I didn’t know I needed 🫶

Who knew you could make this classic Spanish dessert in a slow cooker? Flan is a classic Spanish dessert, slightly sweeter than a traditional baked custard, and with a crowning touch of thin, sweet caramel that pools over the dish once unmolded. To create our slow-cooker version, we opted for a base of sweetened condensed milk and whole milk. Mixing the dairy with a combination of whole eggs, egg yolks, and sugar resulted in a tender, rich custard. We tried to make our caramel topping in the microwave but could not achieve the right texture or color, so we moved it to the stovetop. A water bath ensured that the custard cooked evenly.&nbsp;

Slow-Cooker Flan

water

(4 2/3 ounces 132 grams), sugar

eggs

cups, whole milk

condensed milk

teaspoon, grated lemon zest

You will need an oval slow cooker for this recipe. Check the temperature of the custard after 2 hours and continue to monitor until it registers 180 degrees. The test kitchen's preferred loaf pan measures 8½ by 4½ inches, but you can substitute a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan. Serve the flan on a dish with a raised rim to contain the liquid caramel.

1. Place ¼ cup water in large saucepan. Pour sugar into center of pan, taking care not to let sugar crystals touch pan sides. Gently stir with spatula to moisten sugar thoroughly. Bring mixture to boil over medium heat, without stirring, until it begins to turn golden, 4 to 7 minutes. Gently swirling pan, continue to cook until sugar is color of peanut butter, 1 to 2 minutes.

Remove pan from heat and continue to swirl pan until sugar is reddish-amber and fragrant, 15 to 20 seconds. Immediately add remaining 2 tablespoons water (mixture will bubble) and swirl pan until water is incorporated. Pour caramel into 8½ by 4½-inch loaf pan; do not scrape out saucepan.

Whisk eggs and yolks together in medium bowl. Whisk in milk, condensed milk, and lemon zest until incorporated, then pour into prepared pan. Fill slow cooker with ½ inch water (about 2 cups) and set pan in slow cooker. Cover and cook until center of flan jiggles slightly when shaken and registers 180 degrees, 2 to 3 hours on low.

Transfer pan to wire rack and let cool to room temperature, about 2 hours. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until well chilled, at least 8 hours or up to 4 days.

To serve, slide paring knife around edges of pan. Invert serving dish on top of pan, and turn pan and dish over. When flan is released, remove loaf pan. Use rubber spatula to scrape residual caramel onto flan. Slice and serve.

This Spanish-style meatball soup boasts a sunset-colored broth and lean turkey meatballs kept moist and tender thanks to a panade (a paste made from bread and milk) and Manchego (a sharp Spanish sheep's-milk cheese). For our broth, we started with a&nbsp;sofrito, a traditional Spanish base of onion, bell pepper, and garlic, then added smoked paprika. After deglazing the pot with white wine, we poured in chicken broth, then carefully dropped in the meatballs and some chopped fresh kale. The soup required a mere 3 minutes under pressure, after which we brightened it with a sprinkling of minced parsley and a touch of extra Manchego.

Instant Pot Spanish-Style Turkey Meatball Soup

slice, hearty white sandwich bread, torn into quarters

¼ cup, whole milk

tablespoons, minced fresh parsley, divided

½ teaspoon, table salt

pound, turkey

tablespoon, extra-virgin olive oil

, onion, chopped

red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and cut into ¾-inch pieces

garlic cloves, minced

teaspoons, smoked paprika

dry white wine

chicken broth

kale,

Be sure to use ground turkey, not ground turkey breast (also labeled 99 percent fat-free), in this recipe.

Using fork, mash bread and milk together into paste in large bowl. Stir in Manchego, 3 tablespoons parsley, and salt until combined. Add turkey and knead mixture with your hands until well combined. Pinch off and roll 2-teaspoon-size pieces of mixture into balls and arrange on large plate (you should have about 35 meatballs); set aside.

Using highest sauté function, heat oil in Instant Pot until shimmering. Add onion and bell pepper and cook until softened and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in garlic and paprika and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in wine, scraping up any browned bits, and cook until almost completely evaporated, about 5 minutes. Stir in broth and kale, then gently submerge meatballs.

Lock lid in place and close pressure release valve. Select high pressure cook function and cook for 3 minutes. Turn off Instant Pot and quick-release pressure. Carefully remove lid, allowing steam to escape away from you.

Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve, passing extra Manchego separately.

It takes only a few ingredients to make this decadent and iconic cheesecake. The recipe is a mini version of the original, which was adapted from the celebrated recipe developed more than 30 years ago by Santiago Rivera at the La Viña bar and restaurant in Donostia–San Sebastián, Basque Country, Spain. This cheesecake is baked in a hot oven without a water bath, yielding a cake with a caramelized exterior and ultracreamy interior. The milky, sweet, and slightly tangy interior is beautifully complemented by the added complex notes from the caramelized top. We recommend keeping a close eye on the internal temperature by sticking the thermometer exactly in the center of the cake to prevent an interior that’s too loose or overbaked. Moistening crumpled parch- ment for lining the pan makes the paper supple and easy to work with.

Basque Cheesecake for Two

large, eggs, room temperature

(7 ounces), sugar

pound, cream cheese, room temperature

1⁄2 cup, heavy cream, room temperature

tablespoons, all-purpose flour

You will need a 6-inch springform pan. for this recipe. Do not use cream cheese spread, whipped or low-fat cream cheese, or Neufchâtel in this recipe. If baking the cheesecake in a toaster oven, decrease the baking time by about 5 minutes. To bake this cake in your air fryer:   Place pan in air-fryer basket. Place basket in air fryer, set temperature to 300 degrees, and bake for 1¼ hours.  This recipe is from the cookbook     Baking for Two    , which includes more than 200 small-batch recipes.

Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 425 degrees. Spray or lightly sprinkle 1 approximately 16 by 12-inch piece of parchment paper evenly with cold water. Crumple parchment into ball, then gently uncrumple. Press parchment onto bottom and sides of 6-inch springform pan. Fold overhanging parchment outward, over edge of pan. Using kitchen shears, trim overhanging parchment to about 1 inch past edge of pan.

Process eggs and sugar in food processor until mixture is frothy and pale yellow, about 1 minute. Add cream cheese, heavy cream, and flour and pulse until cream cheese is bro- ken into large, even pieces, about 6 pulses. Process until mixture is completely smooth, about 1 minute.

Transfer batter to prepared pan and place pan on rimmed baking sheet. Bake until top of cheesecake is deeply browned, edges are set, and center of cheesecake registers 155 degrees, about 50 minutes (center will be jiggly). Remove cheesecake from oven and transfer to wire rack. Let cheesecake cool in pan for 2 hours.

Remove side of pan. Gently peel parchment away from sides of cheesecake until parchment is flush with counter. To slice, dip sharp knife in very hot water and wipe dry after each cut. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.
