Spanish Poor Man’s Potatoes, Patatas a lo Pobre, are anything but humble. We love the idea of turning a “struggle meal” – a meal put together with inexpensive ingredients – into something special. Onion, bell pepper and yukon gold potatoes simmer in a generous glug of our Roasted Garlic Extra Virgin Olive Oil. We added a bit of heat with Aleppo Chile Flakes. Simple, delicious and special.
