Jiffy Corn Casserole (Pastel de Maíz)
Sweet corn muffin mix, two forms of corn, and sour cream for richness. This is the potluck casserole that gets requested by name, ready in under an hour with almost no technique required.

Spanish Fried Potatoes (Patatas Fritas)
The Spanish grandmother's method — low heat, good olive oil, and patience. No thermometer, no double-fry. Just one pan done right.

The baked potato is pure technique — oven heat and time transform a raw starch into something fluffy and crisp-skinned that works as a meal on its own or a side for almost anything.

French Fries (Patatas Fritas)

Roasted Vegetables (Verduras Asadas)
High heat, a hot oven, and space on the tray. That's all roasting vegetables requires — and it transforms almost anything into something worth eating on its own.

Mashed Potatoes (Puré de Patatas)
