An exotically flavourful side dish of potatoes from Spain, this costs a bit more than French Fries but it is through the roof for entertaining!

The Saffron I have looks like yellow threads in a jar. How would I incorporate that into this recipe?

Just crumble them into the water, they will steep into the liquid.


Saffron has a wonderful flavor. I've printed this out. Thanks for the post!
