Vegan Patatas Bravas - Vegan recipe hero image

Growing up, I always looked forward to family gatherings where we’d share plates of crispy potatoes and tangy sauces.

This Vegan Patatas Bravas recipe brings back those joyful memories while being completely plant-based.

I love the crunch of the potatoes paired with the smoky, spicy sauce—it’s like a party in my mouth, and it's so simple to make!

Plus, it’s a great way to impress friends who think vegan food is boring.

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

Yukon Gold potatoes are perfect for this dish because they’re creamy and flavorful. If you want a different flavor, you could use sweet potatoes! For the mayo, I love using a store-bought vegan mayo, but if you’re feeling adventurous, you can make your own with soaked cashews, lemon juice, and a bit of garlic.

Tips & Notes

  • I love to double the sauce for extra drizzling—it's that good!
  • If you want to prep ahead, you can cut the potatoes and toss them in oil and spices the night before.

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes I add a splash of sriracha to the sauce for a little kick!
  • You can swap out the smoked paprika for regular paprika or even chipotle powder for a different flavor profile.

Storage & Freezing

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to get them crispy again!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these potatoes in an air fryer?

Absolutely! Just toss them in a bit of oil and air fry at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes, shaking halfway through.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high heat will help the potatoes get nice and crispy.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, toss the cubed Yukon Gold potatoes with olive oil, salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Make sure they’re well coated.

  3. 3

    Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This helps with the crispiness!

  4. 4

    Roast the potatoes in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, mix together the vegan mayonnaise, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, and maple syrup until smooth.

  6. 6

    Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.

  7. 7

    Serve the crispy potatoes drizzled with the sauce and topped with fresh parsley. Enjoy your delicious Vegan Patatas Bravas!
