Real Food From Spain. Good To Eat...

And Good For You Too....



Sit down to some well prepared food from Spain and you can bank on getting something tasty. In fact the strong food tastes enjoyed by the spanish can bring a delightful zing to the tastebuds.good Andalucian food


In Andalucia a lot of the traditional recipes use the most basic of ingredients...
...Gazpacho (tomato and bread), patatas á la pobre (poor man's potatoes), cocido (a stew made with chick peas) and rabo de torro (ox-tail) are very popular. And, of course, fried fish - fresh from the seas - are an important part of food from Spain.

These are only a few of the many examples of how the simple Andalucian cooking in Spain brings out the rich flavours of the food - simply.

All this is summed up in the term "Mediterranean Diet" - a healthy way to eat, without having to sacrifice on flavour or enjoyment.....
