- 1 large potato
- 4 slices of jamon
- 1 egg
- 3-4 tbsp flour
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 2-3 garlic cloves minced
- 500 ml chicken stock
- parsley chopped
- olive oil
Slice the potato into evenly thick rounds. Place small pieces of jamon between two slices to form sandwiches.
Beat the egg in a bowl. Dip each potato sandwich in egg, then coat lightly with flour.
Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the potatoes until golden on both sides. Remove carefully and set aside.
In another pan, sauté the onion and garlic in olive oil until soft and translucent.
Add parsley and pour in the chicken stock. Reduce heat to low.
Place the potatoes into the sauce, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, turning halfway through carefully.
If the sauce thickens too much, add a splash of water.
Serve hot with extra parsley and plenty of sauce.
