(Patatas alioli)

Alioli is a catalan word meaning oïl and garlic - the spanish version of the french aïoli.

1. Boil the potatoes whole with their skin on in a large pan filled with water. Once they are cooked, let them cool slightly and then peel them.
2. Cut them into bite-sized pieces and sprinkle some salt over them.
3. Pour over the mayonnaise, mixing it with the crushed garlic and some chopped parsley.
    

This very popular, and sometimes coarsely interpreted tapa, goes well with a generous wine with both body and freshness, such as a Manzanilla from Sanlúcar.
