What do you do for a tapas evening? Planning to do olives, cured meats, chorizo in red wine, tortilla, machete cheese with honey drizzled on and garlicky prawns. Definitely need some ideas for something chickeny as one guest won't eat prawns. Very open to your fab ideas.
Serving cava and Rioja???
Oh and dh keen to bake some kind of bread himself, not sure what though?

Tortilla? Can't do tapas without in my house!

I can't read. Great.

Mushrooms (garlicky) are always popular for tapas round here.

love 'machete' cheese! Grin Fried lamb's kidneys with garlic, thyme and sherry is a favourite, I would suggest chicken strips dusted with paprika before grilling as an easy idea too

Lol machete. Manchego! Bloody autocorrect changed that to man hero this time! Think man hero cheese or machete cheese would be delightful :)

Spanish meatballs yum!

Agree with albondigas (meatballs) and tortilla. I also made creamy sherry and mushroom pork in the week which was lovely!

patatas bravas

Russian salad
butter bean salad or in tomato sauce and olive oil
wilted spinach (or chard) with pine nuts
Romesco sauce is good to go with tapas

loads of lovely Spanish recipes here

We went out for tapas last night and it was divine.

I would suggest halloumi souvlaki. You could do chicken souvlaki.
Artichokes with caramelised onions smothered in grilled manchego.
Greek salad or tabbouleh
Zalouk, tatziki and hummus
Flatbread

I would serve a white Rioja or a Spanish cava.

Yum!
