    One of my favorite Mexican dishes ever, especially for breakfast as a taco or part of a breakfast plate. I grew up on this with my mom making it all the time.

    Papas Rancheras


    4 medium potatoes, rinse and diced

    ¼ cup oil

    1 small onion

    1 medium tomatoes, rinse and diced

    1 jalapeño, rinse and diced

    1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

    Salt to taste

    In a pot add oil, let it heat up, then add potatoes, cook and let it toast a bit while it's toasting cover with lid to let it steam and softened, do this until it's all toasty lite brown, and cooked all the way through, now add onions, cilantro and jalapeños cook until translucent, then add tomato and salt. 

    Serve as a side dish or on a corn or flour tortilla.

    This is not my recipe, i got it from: https://mamasinthekitchencookingnbaking.blogspot.com/2017/12/papas-ranchera.html?m=1

    @PummyRaj , I know you must like this recipe. It is called "Aloo ke Parathe"

    Ingredients-

    1. Dough made from whole wheat flour – A basic dough is made with whole wheat flour (atta), salt, oil and water. Making this unleavened dough is very easy and you can either knead it with your hands or in a stand mixer
    2. Mashed potato stuffing – Potatoes are boiled, peeled and then mashed. The mashed potatoes are seasoned with herbs, spices and salt, and then are stuffed in a rolled dough before being roasted or fried.

    Recipe-

    First take the dough and unleavened. Then the potato stuffing is filled in this chappati after which it is again unleavened. Then it is heated on the pan with a good amount of ghee or butter after which your paratha is ready!

    Hi @PummyRaj

    When frying potatoes, simply wash and cut potatoes into wedges or strips (peel first, if desired). Other ingredients you'll need include oil, shortening or lard for frying (depending on which frying method you choose), and seasonings of your choice. You'll use a shallow frying pan for shallow frying, or a deep fryer (or large pot) to deep fry. Fry potatoes in oil, shortening or lard for about 5 to 6 minutes; then drain potatoes on paper towels and add seasonings.

    @PummyRaj Here is the Gratin Dauphinois:

    Ingredients:

    1 kg potatoes au gratin

    2 cloves garlic

    20g soft butter

    30 cl of milk

    30 cl whipping cream

    Fine salt

    1 grated nutmeg

    White pepper from the mill

    20g breadcrumbs

    Preparation of the recipe:

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (th. 6). Wash, brush and peel the potatoes. Cut potato slices of about 4 mm with a mandolin or a knife. Peel the garlic cloves. Crush a clove of garlic with a wide slicing knife, pressing the blade with your fingers. Rub the entire bottom and sides of the gratin dish with the other garlic clove. Butter the dish by pressing the butter on all sides with the back of a spoon. Pour the milk and cream into a saucepan. Heat over medium heat until boiling. Pour in the potatoes. Add 4 pinches of salt. Add the nutmeg. Add the crushed garlic clove. Give 6 turns of the pepper mill. Stir well. Let cook for 5 minutes. When boiling, the potatoes lose their starch and the milk-cream mixture thickens. Remove the potato slices with a slotted spoon. Place them in the dish, distributing them well. Pour the liquid from the saucepan into the dish. Bake and cook for 45 mins. Check the potatoes for doneness with the tip of a knife. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Put back in the oven for 5 to 10 minutes to brown well.

    Hi @PummyRaj, this thread is so mouth-watering! Here is the recipe, and it's called "Patatas Bravas"

    Source: Delish

    Ingredients

    POTATOES

    • 4 russet potatoes, cut into 1" cubes
    • 2 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
    • 3 c. extra-virgin olive oil


    ALIOLI

    • 2 large egg yolks
    • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped 
    • 1 tsp. fresh lime or lemon juice
    • 1/4 tsp. Dijon mustard 
    • 1/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil 
    • Kosher salt


    BRAVAS SAUCE

    • 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil 
    • 1/2 tsp. Spanish smoked paprika 
    • 1/2 tsp. Spanish sweet paprika 
    • 1/4 tsp. Spanish hot paprika or cayenne pepper
    • 1/2 c. tomato sauce
    • 1/4 c. low-sodium chicken broth 
    • 1/2 tsp. sherry vinegar


    Cooking Directions

    POTATOES

    1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add potatoes and 2 teaspoons salt. Cook until potatoes begin to soften, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain, spread on a baking sheet, and let cool. 
    2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil until an instant-read or deep-fry thermometer registers 360°. Fry potatoes, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer potatoes to a paper towel-lined plate; season with salt.


    ALIOLI

    1. In a medium bowl, combine egg yolks, garlic, lime juice, and mustard. Whisking constantly, slowly stream in oil drop by drop just until mixture thickens (it helps to do this in stages to prevent sauce from breaking); season with salt. 


    BRAVAS SAUCE

    1. In a medium saucepan over medium high-heat, heat oil. Add smoked paprika, sweet paprika, and hot paprika and stir to combine. Toast spices, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 10 seconds.
    2. Stir in tomato sauce, broth, and vinegar. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium high-heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced, about 5 minutes.
    3. Arrange potatoes on a platter. Drizzle with bravas sauce and alioli.

    Yummy 😋

    I just miss my gran's chips, cut from our farm grown potatoes, cooked in beef dripping, fried in a shallow pan. They were the best ever!
