Does anyone know how to make Patatas Bravas (sp)?

I would really like to make them this weekend.

I know it's just potatoes in a tomato sauce but how do I cook the potatoes and how what does the sauce consist of?

Thank you.

lol!

I can't see dh dressed as a Matador somehow! Although I would love to wear a flamenco dress

I just hope I can get it all right. I always struggle to get everything ready at the same time.

Yeah I have a dd who is 18 months. Do you go to the playgroups round here?

It'll be weird if you go to the same one as me!

Where have you moved from?

OP posts:
alibo · 12/04/2005 20:46

haven't gone to any playgroups yet; we moved here at christmas from nottingham to be near my sister and her family. they live in darton, and she has 2 dd's, one 5yr old and one 16mths. my dh is from nottingham, but i am originally from oldham, nr manchester!! what about you?

Newbarnsleygirl · 12/04/2005 21:02

DH is from Barnsley and I am from York. We lived in Wakefield for 4 years and then moved here last summer.

If you want we can meet up and I'll show you where the playgroup is if you like. There is one just at the top of the road near you where that little car park is, in that Church on a Friday afternoon. I don't go to that one yet.

The one I go to is up Greenside Avenue on Tuesday mornings.

I still can't believe there is another mumsnetter in Barnsley!
