I found a recipe for Bravas! It’s not the one Manna makes, but believe me, it’s also very good…

Chop up one small red onion and 2 cloves of garlic. Heat 2 lugs olive oil over a medium heat in a saucepan/ small pot and add the onion and garlic, as well as 1 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (try and get good ones, it really makes a difference) and 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper. Gently fry for 2min, then add 4 tamatoes (skins off – by making a cross on one end and placing it in boiling water for 1 minute) or you can use 1 can of tomatoes (but discard half of the juice, use only the other half) and one fresh bay leaf. Simmer that for 5 minutes on a low heat.

Now it’s ready to use as a sauce for Jamie O’s Patatas! Instant gratification insured!
