Spanish Tapas Platter Recipe!

[@altrogeruvah]

I am a guy who spent most of his teenage and adult life cooking, instead of going out, but at some point, fell a victim of habit by regurgitating the same recipes over and over. Thank you for resparking my interest in cooking and discovering new tastes! I now cook for my family every Sunday ~

[@RafadelPozo94]

Thank you for spreading the Spanish culture and make people be interested in it!! There're a huge variety of tapas, more than imaginable, and also more than one way to make them (although a truly Spanish tortilla is not meant to be cooked in the oven, that's the easy way! Hahaha). Again, I love this video, thanks!

[@guillermovidal4893]

As a Spanish chef... Well done. I see in some comments people saying that... the Spanish tortilla never goes to the oven (false, sometimes the Spanish tortilla goes in the oven, a hundred years ago it was easier to do it in the oven) And those potatoes need more olive oil!!! There are a lot of recipes of chorizo with honey and some kind of wine, cider or others, so... well done with that to. Thanks a lot for this video of Spanish tapas

[@NinaNinaNB]

I'm so glad about your comment, especially coming from a person who actually knows Gracias ☺

[@JackR772]

I thought the same, not enough oil!

I love your variations of spanish tapas and there are so much out there. They look really tasty! I like the serving of the board approach. So rustic. :)

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it :)

[@felicitaspizarro]

Soo good Donal!!! Loved the chorizo tapa!

[@TheSmileyTaste]

This spanish tortilla looks so delicious! Good work Donal! :)

[@donalskehan]

thank you! glad you like it!

[@TheSmileyTaste]

You're welcome! :)

[@maireadmaguire4589]

Can people stop getting their knickers in a twist over the 'traditional' way to make Spanish food. Clearly this is just Donal's version. Tbh it would be a bit boring if he went exactly by the book. He's being creative and original. You should be happy. Great video Donal! Really enjoyed it! 👌🏻😊

[@juanQuedo]

most comments are because he cooked the tortilla in the oven which makes it a frittata, an italian dish. Donald's version could be the addition of veggies,including the rosemary in the almonds or whatever you want. Different ways of cooking produce different dishes. I'm sure that wherever you live there is a "famous" dish and it would be another different thing if you cooked it in a different way.

[@evgeniinikitin8843]

I absolutely love your channel man. I came across it a couple days ago, but I've already cooked couple of your dishes, they turned out amazing and were really easy to make. Love your positive energy too. Keep it up and thanks from Russia!

[@mslisacecilia]

I'm super impressed with your multitasking skills! that's hard to do in the kitchen but I adored your platter. it came out so beautifully!

[@jacquelinelombard5029]

The Chorizo braised in red wine was a hit ...beautiful quick and delicious tapas !

[@dhombios]

In North Spain it is also cooked with cider, being it equally amazing. Chorizo a la sidra cooked in wood fire is delicious

[@danimarino5653]

Magnifico! Looks so wonderful!

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it!

[@mischellepravina9580]

There are so many varieties! 🤩

[@carmenegger4496]

Amazing tapas ideas!! Can't wait to try them!!

[@donalskehan]

thank you :)

[@_innerpeacekeeper]

your kitchen is goals!

[@hanadiaash]

Looks delicious.. But what is the replacement for the red wine < i'm not alcoholic

[@aquilestadeu]

Nice, creative and tasty! Great job.

[@donalskehan]

thank you :)

[@aburningpromise]

Spaniards on my mom's side...they can be very snobbish when it comes to food...yet this looks so good, it makes me want to try it....the only thing I will add is more olive oil to the tortilla as well as Spanish olives to the board...also where's the wine?!!!! :)

[@alfcab]

A pitcher of Sangria and this looks like an amazing Summer brunch. Nice

[@lovstoned23]

I love your "messy" style... Well done😊

[@donalskehan]

thank you :)

[@noorfatima8930]

Donald, Whatever you cook is just so fantastic! You are my one of the most favourite chefs! Love you! ♥♥

[@sylvialove3516]

[@donalskehan]

[@waltertal]

Woah that looks incredibly delish!

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it!

[@estelaVillar-]

I'm Spanish and I think your way of making Spanish tortilla is healthier and it looks very good. Well done!

[@lidia5181]

Loved the red bell pepper addition, tho that tortilla cheat using the oven... nope. Next time give the flip a try! Keep it up! Xx

[@shirleycastle5170]

looks very yummy

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it!

[@PtolemyXVII]

Wow! Donal looks like he's spent some serious time in the sun! :) Potatoes look delicious!

[@donalskehan]

[@TheRoboCaterpillar]

I really want to make this! I went on an exchange in Spain a few years ago and could never recreate the tortillas, hadn't seen this oven hack before!

[@rishabhrai1157]

Love it!

[@donalskehan]

thank you!

[@Persianamir20]

Love the way you say potatoes

[@donalskehan]

[@QuiltingCrow]

[@donalskehan]

well worth a try!

[@sandrigomez2828]

Yay I'm from Spain and I love this💚

[@ThePibebazooka]

Lovely

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it!

[@TJCollado]

Hey Donald, I love your videos!Great music great talking throughout and of course delicious recipes.One comment about the tortilla, this is more like an Italian frittata. The way that the Spanish tortilla is cooked is completely different. Shoot me a message if you like to know more about it. Cheers

[@lilyuen]

That apron is nice! Where did you get that Donal?

[@donalskehan]

thank you :) I ordered it from Australia! Cargocrew.com.au

[@Evque]

Not shoritzo, say tchorisso❤ Beautiful recipe, thaaank you!

[@Lagatabruja64]

Good point, but sorry, not exactly... The Castillian Spanish pronunciation is "tcho-ree-tho". Not "tz" (totally made up by English speakers), not "ss" (South of Spain and America), but "TH" as in 'thought'.

[@Evque]

It's not a "point" - I know Spanish:) The point was actually - not to say "sh" in the beginning and "tz" in the end. Both are not correct. Regarding the correct ways - there are many, you know. South of America is quite big, in Mexico they say "ss".

[@CarmenGonzalez-ni6dn]

Evque se dice CHORIZO

[@Evque]

Carmen González, se escribe CHORIZO, pero dicen SS, no hay Z como la dicen los inglés - estaba explicando la manera de decir.

[@terryharvey3659]

omg i have to make this

[@Lagatabruja64]

This is a strange mixture of Italian (the frittata) and Middle Eastern (chickpeas, almonds, honey) food, cooked very differently from how we would normally cook in Spain. But it looks delicious and easy to make. Yum!!! Essential tips for real cocina española: More olive oil, less garlic/spices, good ingredients and keep it simple. Thanks for everything, Donal!

[@gharirabatool5890]

soo yummy

[@donalskehan]

really worth a try!

[@ninfav.332]

Yumii Delicious 👀✌Donal n the Chorizo :p 👌👏Super ♡ XX nice sunday!

[@donalskehan]

glad you liked it!

[@anncummins4147]

Hi Donal Irish Ann living in Portugal. Can the Chorizo recipe be served cold? Thanks

[@diamandone]

Just a few tips on the tortilla: let the potatos stay longer with the egg mixture, it should be a little dense when youput it on the pan. Also, instead of putting the tortilla in the oven, grab a plate, flip it in it and then put it down on the pan on the side not done. It's a bit messy but the result is wonderful :)

[@catwu3935]

Oh My Goodness! you made an egg pizza!! :D looks fantastic!

[@acrcreew]

Your spanish tortilla it's a bit different from the original one

[@MrBombe92]

What is the original one?

[@Jorge-tx1nz]

No garlic, no parsley, no red bell peppers... and we don't cook it in the oven. We cook it in the pan, flipping it with a plate.

[@MrBombe92]

cool I will try it, maybe I will add some bulgarian flavors to experiment like savory or thyme. Maybe thyme, but first I will make the traditional one that you said.

[@chanapolpimsen2647]

The original is always the best But i think his version is interesting also

[@robert111k]

+MrBombe92 Think that there is a lot of thyme all over Spain and nobody puts it in his tortilla. Maybe you should save your creativity for other purposes. Just a suggestion :).

[@minuteman4199]

Those potatoes would have been beautiful deep fried. The chorizo recipe was nice, I;ll give that one a try.

[@empowered_earthlings]

wow amazing video! I'll have to try this, even though I don't think I'm going to be as calm as you 😄

[@donalskehan]

you'll be fine :) it's well worth a try!

[@ItsArremsDayTodayBeauty]

hello Donal, I am a new subscriber but been watching you for 2 years now, starting when I was looking for recipe for pavlova... anyway you should try to make Spanish Bread... it's a Filipino bread... just to try it out.. you're probably not gonna be able to read this but I'm trying!!! great video!

[@jaimegarcia9408]

Is spanish bread . The flipino bread is quite.

[@cybermewt]

I'm not really sure who/where did you get this as 'typical tapas' from Spain, but here are a few tips from a group of fans of your videos: + Great pick of flavours! and of course the cheese and Serrano/Pata negra are really good picks and almost a MUST when preparing Tapas + The Chorizo with chickpeas is not that typical at least as tapas in most of Spain, I'd have gone with a 'Chorizo a la sidra' instead. Don't use honey and use cider instead of wine and let it reduce in the same way to get a 'Chorizo a la sidra' (typical all over the North of Spain) + The Almonds with smoked paprika are not that common in the whole Spain, but some people do have them as typical from their region. + Sorry but the Tortilla de patata is simply wrong, you prepared a Frittata (which is nice, but not a tortilla): Fry the potatos and onion slices with more oil, and take them out of the oil when they start browning. Let them rest a bit while you whisk the eggs (the paprika is not that common, although is allowed... people usually use a green paprika). After whisking the eggs, add a bit of salt and pepper, add the potatos/onion, give it a stir and let it rest for 15 minutes so the flavors mix completely in there. In middle-high fire put a pan with some oil... add the mixture and stir it just a bit so the tortilla "starts" coming together. When you feel comfortable with the consistency, turn around the tortilla with the help of a plate (careful) and let it finish in low fire for a few minutes (if you want a perfect tortilla and your eggs are new, you should aim for a point in which the inside part is still a little creamy and not really cooked). I hope it helps a bit :D nice video though!

[@kenomisan]

omg it's looks so good! should be illegal! mmm i'm so hungry rigth now

[@donalskehan]

haha you should give it a go :)

[@elpunkyguarro]

Si eso es una tortilla española, yo no soy española entonces ;(

[@sofi88p]

Lo que eres es hartante.

[@elpunkyguarro]

+Sofi Fuentes Y tú una maleducada.

[@sofi88p]

elpunkyguarro Lo que sea, pero yo no voy comentando y criticando en videos nadamas porque no hacen las cosas como yo quiero. Quien hace eso? Oh, ups, tu!

[@elenaesp]

Opino lo mismo que +elpunkyguarro Eso no es una tortilla. Las patatas primero se fríen en abundante aceite y nunca se mete en el horno. Se le da la vuelta a la tortilla!!

[@elpunkyguarro]

+eleonoraespineira Justo a eso es a lo que me refería simplemente: a que él podrá pensar que lo es o lo está haciendo igual, pero no es una tortilla. Pero claro, últimamente hay gente tan sensible que se molesta cuando se dicen las cosas claramente, que ya no se puede ni comentar nada

[@dabisu]

Next time you should try to do some "Chocolate con churros y chorizo". Very popular here. Ok, time to eat my yogur de chorizo before going to sleep.

[@Theapplemaster1001]

What can we use instead of wine?

[@smaddhi1991]

Love the recipes except the tortilla... A Spanish tortilla never goes into the oven! You need to flip it! (Sorry, I'm protective of that dish xD)

[@alexcasablancasjorgensen2194]

Totally agree about that omelette in the oven... absolute NO! No one does that here in Spain...

[@FlowersInHisHair]

Oh please. I bet thousands of people use cheaty methods for tortilla.

[@smaddhi1991]

I am aware of that. However, what I'm trying to say is that in every spanish household I've been to (including my own) I always saw that a tortilla was flipped and I have never seen the cheaty method for a spanish tortilla in Spain. I was always tought what I mentioned in my initial comment. The only time I have seen the "cheaty method" was when people were cooking an italian frittata.

[@cybermewt]

There're ... but the result is not the same, what he cooked is a fritata (italian dish) so if you want to test the real tortilla, follow the instructions :)

[@JackR772]

You're protective of that dish? Are you insane?

[@Chiratalg]

Is there a way to get the potatoes so fine without a tool?

[@donalskehan]

you can carefully cut it by hand :)

[@rutbanos]

Although I usually love your videos, as a Spanish, I have to say that your recipe for tortilla is not at all like the real one. It is true that there is a different way to make tortilla in each house but it is more about the time of cooking or if you want to add onion or something else, but the steps of making it are always the same and you changed them, both in the potato making as in the tortilla itself. BTW, is chorizo and it looked pretty good.

[@ZainxIqbal]

Donal, what is your favorite color?

[@donalskehan]

Green :)

[@rafaelrivero1343]

Yum !

[@LaCremeBruleee]

What can I use instead of red wine?

[@benjidog1514]

When are you opening a restaurant?!

[@donalskehan]

Not in the plans for the moment! would love to in the future tho :)

[@shaggywaffle578]

How did u get the potatoes sliced like this?

[@donalskehan]

you can use a mandolin slicer if you have one!

[@chloehennessy306]

yay I'm early love your cooking

[@donalskehan]

Thank you :)

[@sietelibras1652]

Una tortilla española no lleva pimienta, no se hace al horno y se fríe con mucho más aceite!! Parece más un pudding de patata que una tortilla!

[@clarabarberosanchez665]

💜tortilla chorizo !!!

[@PurpleJCAT1]

Yum! 😋👏

[@donalskehan]

thank you!

[@kubobubo1]

Pls How to make donut recipe pls :D thanks

[@DackxJaniels]

What was the PP?

[@donalskehan]

When it contains product placement we add that to the description box :)

[@DackxJaniels]

+Donal Skehan I got that, kudos for being transparent, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out what the placed product was!

[@miudien]

you posted this right when I arrived in Spain. How coincident is that? :3

[@donalskehan]

haha that's pretty cool!

[@ismamoreno5925]

That´s a fritatta not tortilla

[@jaimegarcia9408]

La fritata es una tortilla española. Es lo mismo. La tortilla española se puede hacer de 100 formas. Es muy versátil.

[@barbaratobio683]

what??@@jaimegarcia9408

[@jaimegarcia9408]

That frittata is quite that spanish tortilla,invented with introduction of the potato to america for the spanish.

[@jaimegarcia9408]

Isma, además lleva chorizo ibérico, que es un embutido español. Cómo va ser una frittata.

[@jaimegarcia9408]

Isma, iberian chorizo is a spanish saucesse, the spanish tortilla is most versátile, is with spinach , manchego, pepper, etc. That is not frittata, is a spanish tortilla with iberian chorizo, is a symbol to spanish cuisine.

[@otakupuschel-dq2eb]

You're a really good multitasker 😂😆👍👌

[@farhaanah]

Donald what is the meaning of Tapas

[@orieuQ]

Tapa in spanish literally means lid

[@hathor77]

In Spain we go to a bar, and take a beer, and you can also take little plate of something, like that (tortilla, cheese, chorizo...) and that is what is called "tapa".

[@cathy6828]

Oh gosh, that chorizo dish is tempting me sooooo much to go back from being vegetarian... :'D absolutely love tapas in general tho

[@vacheliiyer5723]

Was there someone looking in through the open door behind or am I imagining things.

[@donalskehan]

no way? haven't noticed but will have to go back to check :)

[@vacheliiyer5723]

:-O

[@indiralad7939]

im spanish and it looks very nice. And its not tschorisso is chorizo.

[@Ayyelos92]

your "tapas" seems delicious (in fact I'm from Spain and I've never seen the recipes you made but they seem cool eany way). Just a thing: we never coock tortilla in the oven. NEVER. This is like a kind of sin you've made. We allways cook spanish omelete in the pan. And, just another little detail: we use to cut the potatoes in cubes, not in the way you do. And, to be honest, you could have choose other tapas more representatives of our culture as 'ensaladilla rusa', 'gazpacho', 'croquetas', eany kind of 'pinxos' or things like that. Your recipes really sounds delicious, but I'm not sure if they are really typical of my country.

[@CarmenGonzalez-ni6dn]

Eso no es una tortilla de patatas, por Dios!! Eso es un pudding de patata!! Y ese plato qué haces con el chorizo y los garbanzos, donde lo has aprendido??? En España no, eso seguro!!

[@forevayoung7849]

Can u make a nando's butterfly breast irish way?

[@mariaRodriguez-br8pc]

¿Pero dónde se ha visto semejante barbaridad? Ni son tapas españolas, ni se le parecen. Un respeto a la gastronomía de nuestro país; hombre ya!!!

[@nganga4999]

Just add more olive oil while frying the sliced potatoes...overall was fine 👌😋

[@orieuQ]

This recepies might be a bit spanish inspired but i dont think any spanish bar would to serve you honey with chorizo , or a baked tortilla . And the pata negra is a kind of pig which ham is very well known thats why the word ham is usually , but apparently you are using the lomo embuchado (pork loin )and not the ham and you are refering to it with the name of the animal so i found it quite confuse .

[@sofi88p]

Why are you like this?

[@juanQuedo]

I think OrieuQ14 is being educational. it's a fact, loin and ham are different things; Pata negra refers to the quality, it is not used to name them. And that is not a spanish tortilla in any way, that was a frittata, which is italian. Frittatas are delicious as well, but they aren't Tortillas; are made by a different process

[@Pilusajaib]

i just love when he said potato hahah bodado~

[@donalskehan]

a few people have said that :)

[@donalskehan]

a few people have said that :)

[@DinukaGunaratne]

Dees NUTS Donald I got my Nuts LOL love the food thought !

[@Pazzo1292]

... is someone creeping behind the door in the background?

[@donalskehan]

someone else said that too! will have to look now :)

[@Pazzo1292]

+Donal Skehan it was only a little bit distracting - apart from that, great recipes! :)

[@CatherineDupuis87]

You say "potatoes" the same way my Nana did (which is odd, because she was two generations removed from Ireland!)

[@pau_pico3]

+KingBones I'm spanish and of course it has eggs... -_-PD: very nice video

[@lairajackiesieras5285]

I'm spanish and I do not put my tortilla (omelette) into the oven and neither put so many seasoning... so you got creative I guess.

[@indiegoo]

I would like to know what Omar Allhiboy think of these recipes :O
