Subject: RE: BS: The other recipe thread is too long
We got back from a week in Andalucía last weekend. We had my sister with us, who loves all things Spanish. We went to the same bar for breakfast and evening grub almost every day, it was that good (and 100 yards from our house!). They had tostada with tomatoes for breakfast but I went for stuff that was more eggy and bacony. In the evening we always ordered about four or five tapas to share. Whilst we varied what we ordered, most times we had garlic mushrooms, Padrón peppers (sine qua non in m'humble), cod croquetas, among others, and, star of the show, pil pil prawns, which I'd never heard of but which is going to become a fixture in my house from on. All you need is some peeled, raw king prawns, garlic, chilli flakes, extra virgin olive oil and sweet paprika. There are loads of recipes online and I haven't made it yet, so watch this space!
