Andorra

Andorra (#43) Trinxat (Potatoes and Cabbage with Bacon)

I almost forgot about this tiny little country nestled between Spain and France which is now on my bucket list.  This recipe kept surfacing when I researched Andorran cuisine.  The dish is hearty and simply made, consisting of just three main ingredients – potatoes, cabbage and bacon.  The potatoes and cabbage are cooked together until soft, then mashed with a little garlic infused olive oil.  The mixture is placed in a skillet over bacon that has already been fried, then cooked until golden, and garnished with more crispy bacon.  I love mashed potatoes and bacon so this dish was right up my alley.
