After we spent an enjoyable week in Spain last month I really wanted to have a go at making my own homemade tapas and what better way to eat tapas than with friends. Over the holiday period with numerous parties and entertaining then why not try something different and throw a tapas party instead of the normal canapes or as alternative to christmas dinner. Below is my Tapas Menu (click on the links to go to the recipes) which has the benefit that most of the dishes can be prepared in advance leaving you free to mingle with your guests and glug some sangria.
- Bread with Olive Oil & Balsamic Vinegar
- Olives, Toasted Almonds & Cubed Almodovar Cheese
- Platter of Serrano Ham & Chorizo
- Manchego with Tomatoes and Olive Oil
- Garlic Mushrooms
- Spinach & Chickpeas in Tomato Sauce
- Spanish Tortilla
- Patatas Bravas
- Patatas Alioli
- Garlic Prawns & Chorizo (I followed this recipe but added a good squeeze of lemon at the end)
- Pork Meatballs in Tomato Sauce
- Merguez Sausages (from our wonderful local sausage shop)
- Red Wine Sangria with Nectarines
- Dairy-free Egg Custard with Caramel Bananas
- Pine Nut & Almond Cookies
