With a few key Spanish ingredients available at your local supermarket, you too can whip up an authentic, fuss-free meal, whether it’s a weeknight dinner or a weekend entertaining friends. José takes inspiration from the whole of Spain, featuring ‘greatest hits’-type recipes – paella, tortilla, croquetas, classic stews, desserts and more.
