From Albert Bevia:
TIPS & TRICKS to make this Recipe: Make sure to cut your potatoes into small pieces, that way they cook quickly. When you add the eggs into the pan, do not over mix them. That way you end up with big chunks of scrambed eggs. Use a GREAT Extra Virgin Olive Oil here, as it cooks and flavors the entire skillet.

Marinated Garlic Mushrooms | Champiñones a la Jerez Recipe

From Albert Bevia:
TIPS & TRICKS to make this Recipe: Instead of adding the garlic into the marinade, I cooked them for about 15 to 20 seconds with the mushrooms. This makes them aromatic and takes the dish to another level. Also make sure to cook your mushrooms on a medium heat not a medium-high heat. That way the flavor of the olive oil goes into each mushroom.

For those of you that follow Spain on a Fork, you know I´ve been making a ton of bread recipes during this lockdown. There is just something so rewarding about making homemade bread.

From Albert Bevia:
TIPS & TRICKS to make this Recipe: I used the bake + broil option when I baked this bread. If your oven can´t do both functions at the same time, just bake it for the same time I baked mine, then add to the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes. Or, if you have the bake option with fan, just use that setting with the same baking time. Maybe a 1 or 2 minute difference, since every oven heat´s differently.

From Albert Bevia:
TIPS & TRICKS to make these FRITTERS: Once you shred your sweet potato, it is so IMPORTANT to squeeze out as much as possible of the water in the sweet potato. I added mine to a cheesecloth and twisted the water out over a sink. This is what gives these fritters that incredible crispy texture. Some of you might be thinking ¨geez….I don´t have 30 minutes to make breakfast!¨. SOLUTION: Make the fritter batter the night before and add it to the fridge. In the morning fry up your fritters and whala, breakfast is served in a jiffy.

From Albert Brevia:
The way I served these 10 delicious tapas was over a piece of bread, like they do in tapas bars in Spain. So the bread is not included as an ingredient, neither is salt or pepper. Just make sure to use baguette bread, it makes all the difference in the flavor.

TIPS & TRICKS to make this recipe: As I stated earlier, make sure to use baguette bread, I cut mine into 1-inch thick diagonal slices and lightly toasted them. The Manchego cheese I used was a mild one, but you can use a stronger cheese if you prefer. I also used an Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil in some of the tapas. The one I used was from Apollo, an absolute flavor bomb that is seriously becoming my go-to EVOO. The ingredients below are to make 3 servings from each tapa, so if you need more, just double up on the ingredients.
