About Bravas

Bravas, a popular Spanish dish, originate from traditional tapas culture and are often served as a flavorful appetizer or side. Typically made with diced potatoes that are fried until crispy, Bravas are topped with a spicy tomato-based sauce or aioli. The dish is seasoned with paprika, garlic, and sometimes chili for a signature bold taste. While potatoes provide carbohydrates and some fiber, Bravas are often fried, which adds saturated fat and calories, making them less ideal for those seeking lower-fat options. However, baking the potatoes or using a heart-healthy oil can enhance their nutritional profile. The sauce adds vitamin C from tomatoes, but beware of added salt or sugar in prepared versions. A memorable indulgence, Bravas showcase the rich, vibrant flavors of Spanish cuisine while offering a chance to adapt ingredients for a lighter take on this beloved dish.
