Potato

The base that makes a full plate. 3,074 tins in stock take to it.

A boiled or roasted potato is the other everyday base, and it turns a tin into a full plate. Cut the potato onto the plate, spoon the fish and its oil over the top, and let it soak in. This is the home of pulpo a la feira, octopus over sliced boiled potato with paprika and the oil, and it works the same way for shellfish and clean oil packs. Some 205 tins, the Galician ones above all, belong here. Boiling a potato is the whole effort, snack to a plate.

The move

Boil one, slice it or chop, spoon the entire tin over with the oil.
