  • Servings: 2
  • Prep: 10 min
  • Cook: 20 min

Ingredients

  • 2 unit baguette
  • 4 g paprika
  • 400 grams potato, cut into cubes
  • 36 ml aioli
  • 60 grams grated cheese
  • 1 unit onion, in thin strips
  • 12 ml balsamic vinegar
  • 250 grams ground pork
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 clove garlic, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • olive oil
  • salt
  • black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C. Cut the potatoes into 2-3 cm cubes and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
  2. Drizzle the potatoes with a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Bake on the middle rack for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through.
  3. Peel the onion and cut it into thin strips. In a pan, heat a splash of oil and a pinch of salt over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the onion and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring. Add the balsamic vinegar and sugar and cook for another 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  5. In a bowl, mix the ground pork with oregano, salt and pepper. Form two 1 cm thick patties.
  6. Heat a pan with a splash of oil over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 30 seconds per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
  7. For the paprika oil: slice the garlic. In the same cleaned pan, add a generous splash of oil and the garlic. Cook for 1 minute over medium heat.
  8. Add the paprika, remove from heat and set aside.
  9. Open the baguettes without separating them completely. Place the patties inside and top with the caramelized onions.
  10. Sprinkle the grated cheese over the onions. Close the baguettes and bake for 6-7 minutes at 220°C until the cheese melts and the bread toasts.
  11. Serve the patatas bravas with aioli and a drizzle of paprika oil to taste. Serve alongside the freshly baked sandwiches.
