Spain on a Fork > All Recipes > Tapas > Spanish Vinegar & Oil Potatoes | TRADITIONAL Recipe from Cádiz Spain

These Spanish Vinegar & Oil Potatoes, known as Papas Aliñas, are one of the most popular tapas dishes that hail from southern Spain. But more specifically, the province of Cádiz. They´re packed with simple yet delicious flavors, effort-less to make and done in just 30 minutes.
You can serve these potatoes chilled or even at room temperature. They´re typically enjoyed as a tapas appetizer in southern Spain, but they also work great as a side dish. Next to some fried fish in tomato sauce and a garden salad.
What really flavors this dish is the olive oil and vinegar. I used a Spanish Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Sherry Vinegar. If you can´t find sherry vinegar in your area, you can substitute it for other types of vinegar. Such as red wine vinegar, white wine vinegar or even rice vinegar.
TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: Important to use potatoes that are a bit more waxy than starchy. As they hold their shape better when being boiled. I used new potatoes, but you can also use yukon gold, golden delight or even red potatoes.

- 1white onion
- handfulfresh parsley
- 6tbspextra virgin olive oil90 ml
- 2tbspsherry vinegar30 ml

Peel and wash the potatoes, then cut them into bite-sized pieces that are 1 inch (2.50 cm) thick, add the cut potatoes into a stock pot, fill with cold water to 1 inch above the potatoes, season generously with sea salt and heat with a high heat
Meanwhile, finely chop the onion, finely chop the fresh parsley and add the olive oil & sherry vinegar into a bowl, whisk until well mixed
After 15 to 20 minutes and the potatoes are just cooked through, you can always pierce them with a toothpick, drain them into a colander, let the potatoes sit so the water can drain
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, add them back into the stock pot, along with the chopped onions, parsley and olive oil & vinegar dressing, season with sea salt & black pepper and gently toss together until well mixed
Transfer into a serving dish, serve chilled or at room temperature, enjoy!

Indescribably delicious! Amazing!I grew up in the South, where everybody’s Mama and Grandmama make their own versions of potato salad and really good potato salad is a staple. This simple version is so good, and so full of flavor, that I could live happily on just this for quite some time.
Thank you, Chef. I look forward to trying more of your recipes.
