Made in Spain

Since the United Nations has declared 2008 the International Year of the Potato, José begins his trip to these stunningly beautiful islands of Canarias by cooking up a fascinating local dish of wrinkled potatoes and two great sauces, a mojo rojo and a mojo verde – then visits the potato fields on the island of Tenerife. While there, of course, José stops off at a great winery and a fabulous restaurant, then ventures on to the island of Lanzarote (but not before creating a superb sancocho–a local version of fish stew).
