#PatataChallenge
Name of the dish: “Patatas meneás”
Ingredients: garnish potatoes from Sanlúcar de Barrameda, onion, bay leaf, salt, sweet paprika, hot paprika, in my case I used pancetta, although in Salamanca they are usually made with jeta.
Techniques: cooking, pressing
Profile: Amateur
With this dish I follow in the line “back to childhood”
In some places in Castilla, they put these potatoes, meneás or revolconas, depending on where you eat them. I have always loved them, but I didn’t know how to make them.
One day we were in a village in the mountains of Salamanca and when we were on the road with the car, I saw a venta where I used to go with my family when I was little (the 7 members of the family in a green Ebro van 😂😂) Anyway, we stopped there to eat and they put these potatoes as a garnish, and I asked them for the recipe. And they gave it to me! Perfect, without omitting details… I will be eternally grateful to them!!!
Here is my first contribution to this challenge

Nombre del plato: “Patatas meneás”
Ingredientes: patatas de guarnición de Sanlúcar de Barrameda, cebolla, laurel, sal, pimentón dulce, pimentón picante, en mi caso he usado panceta, aunque en Salamanca se hacen habitualmente con jeta.
Técnicas: cocción, prensado
Perfil: Amateur
Con este plato sigo en la línea “vuelta a la infancia”
En algunos sitios de Castilla, ponen estas patatas, meneás o revolconas, según donde las comas. Siempre me han encantado, pero no sabía hacerlas.
Un día estábamos en un pueblo de la sierra salmantina y cuando íbamos por la carretera con el coche, vi una venta a la que iba con mi familia cuando era pequeña (los 7 miembros de la familia en una furgoneta Ebro verde 😂😂) Total, que paramos allí a comer y nos pusieron estas patatas como guarnición, y les pedí la receta. ¡Y me la dieron! Perfecta, sin omitir detalles… Les estaré eternamente agradecida!!
Aquí va mi primera aportación a este reto

what a beautiful journey to the heart you shared with us, Carolina! 🚐🥔✨ It gave me a smile to read your story with the green Ebro and those wiggly potatoes full of memories. What a special way to bring a little piece of childhood to the plate! The texture you achieved looks super appetizing, with that vibrant color that invites you to take spoonful after spoonful.
would you dare at some point to experiment making a version of the meneás potatoes using another type of jowl or maybe some different sausage?

carolina, what a wonderful dish and what a trip back to childhood you gave us! ✨ Not only did you manage to capture the authentic essence of the meneás potatoes, but you also managed to get a DIVINE zenithal photo! (My favorite, without a doubt 😍).
The color, the rustic texture, those crispy touches of pancetta… it all screams flavor and tradition! In addition, the plating on that base of natural fibers enhances even more that feeling of warmth, of lifelong cooking made with love.
do you usually give an extra personal touch to the traditional recipe or do you like to respect it just as it was told to you at the time it was sold?
Thanks for joining the #PatataChallenge 🥔 Don’t forget to share this little piece of history in your Instagram stories and tag us with @scoolinary_es and the hashtag #patatachallenge. How well you wiggle emotions and flavors! 🎉Level:

¡Carolina, qué maravilla de plato y qué viaje a la infancia nos regalaste! ✨ No solo lograste capturar la esencia auténtica de las patatas meneás, sino que además, ¡lograste una foto cenital DIVINA! (Mi preferida, sin dudas 😍).
El color, la textura rústica, esos toques crujientes de panceta… ¡todo grita sabor y tradición! Además, el emplatado sobre esa base de fibras naturales potencia aún más esa sensación de calidez, de cocina de toda la vida hecha con cariño.
¿Sueles darle algún toque personal extra a la receta tradicional o te gusta respetarla tal cual te la contaron en aquella venta?
Gracias por sumarte al #PatataChallenge 🥔 No te olvides de compartir este trocito de historia en tus historias de Instagram y etiquetarnos con @scoolinary_es y el hashtag #patatachallenge. ¡Qué bien meneas las emociones y los sabores! 🎉

@Sol Damiani thank you!
I love flavors that feed my soul, but I also love to experiment (although sometimes it’s better that I stay still)
As Cate Blanchett would say: ” Yes to tradition, yes to innovation, yes to potatoes!” 😂😂😂😂
@Sol Damiani gracias!
Me encantan los sabores que me alimentan el alma, pero también me encanta experimentar (aunque a veces es mejor que me esté quietecita)
Como diría Cate Blanchett: “ Sí a la tradición, sí a la innovación, sí a las patatas!” 😂😂😂

What a beautiful way to reconnect with childhood memories through food! 🥔💫 Patatas meneás hold such a special place in your heart, and I can feel the nostalgia in your story. How amazing that you were able to get the recipe from that venta, a little treasure from the past.
The dish itself sounds like the perfect comfort food, with that rich, savory flavor. And the story behind it, with the green Ebro van and family trips, makes it even more meaningful. I can imagine the joy of recreating it in your kitchen, bringing back those fond memories while adding your own twist. 👌💖
