Mojo is a spicy sauce that commonly comes in red or green and is delish served with the potatoes in their salty skins. I like a plate of them all on their own just as they used to serve them with little cocktail sticks in lanzarote and Gran Canaria-yum! Katy S. I haven't been there for yeeeeears have you? Funnily enough this was one of my pregnancy cravings last year so I had to keep making them!

Jodie Bartholomew Oates last year

Fred - so amazing! I never thought I would love boiled potatoes again. I think I wimped out on the salt, though...how much do you think you use?

Margaret McKellar last year

I also do not know what mojo picon is! But I'm sure it's tasty!

Ryan Gillen last year

What's "mojo picon" - or am I being thick?

Lee Daniels last year

<3 the canary islands!

Katy S last year

Mmmmm one of my favourite things to eat, reminds me of the Canary Islands!
