Patatas bravas (Spanish: [paˈtatas ˈβɾaβas], also called patatas a la brava or papas bravas, all meaning "spicy potatoes") is a dish native to Spain.[1] It typically consists of white potatoes that have been cut into 2-centimeter (0.79 in)-wide cubes, then fried in oil and served warm with a spicy "brava" sauce. The brava sauce is primarily paprika (using high-quality Spanish pimentón de la Vera) and olive oil based, [citation needed] with some regions adding tomato, although this can be contentious.
Visitors to Spain often confuse it with the similar dish patatas mixtas, which consists of fried potatoes served with both brava sauce and aioli sauce. [citation needed]
The dish is commonly served in restaurants and bars throughout Spain as a variety of tapa.[2]
Patatas bravas are served in bars in servings that contain approximately a quarter kilo of potato. [citation needed] It is frequently consumed as part of tapas.
The sauce for patatas bravas is also sometimes served over mussels. This dish is known as mejillones en salsa brava.[citation needed]
