Delicious, we used a little more wine and spices and put the sauce through the blender. Highly Recommended as a side dish or snack. -
Delicious. I was skeptical at first because I didn't know how the tomatoes were going to turn out, but they certainly were mashed up enough after the 10 minutes of simmering. Just the right amount of spice. Also, I do recommend a small onion. I think mine was a large onion and it somewhat overpowered the other flavors. Now, I just need to make a tortilla española and I'll feel like I'm in Spain again! -
Easy and Delicious! -
This was really nice. I think the blender is key to blend those flavors together and get a great texture. Easy to make too. -
Had a trial run of this one afternoonand ate the lot. Had to make a second batch for the evening meal! Thanks for a great recipe.

This is a picture of me and my husband in Portugal, climbing up above the clouds with our bikes.
Right now we are travelling around the world on our bicycles, so I only pop onto Zaar occasionally, when internet connections and time allow me to. If I don't reply to a message about one of my recipes, now you know why! Our trip may take several years so if it's urgent, it's probably better for you to post in the forums ;)
Good food is really important to me -- I am happy to pay extra for food that I feel is produced in a sustainable and ethical way and always try to eat using seasonal produce.
When we were in the UK we rarely shopped at supermarkets, trying instead to favour small producers, although we were very lucky in that we lived in London and there was lots of choice.
We also were fortunate enough to have a weekly organic veg box delivered to our door, filled with so many lovely vegetables for very little money. It really opened my horizons in terms of the variety of vegetables I eat. If you're in the UK, check out Riverford for a box supplier as they're amazing!
When I'm not eating I love to take pictures and travel with my husband.
