This Spanish potato soup recipe is based on one of my favourite Spanish dishes, patatas bravas.
I’ve adapted it to be made as a soup in a soup maker, with all the tastes you’d expect with fresh peppers, chillies, paprika and, of course, potatoes.
🛒 What You Need
Ingredients
- 500g potatoes, peeled and chopped (I used Maris Pipers)
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 red pepper, sliced – you can also use a yellow or green pepper
- 400g chopped tomatoes
- 1 tsp dried chilli flakes
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 vegetable stock pot
- Hot water (up to line)
And if you like your soups with a little extra kick, add in some extra crushed chillies (I recommend you taste for hotness levels before adding any extra chilli, though!)
This soup was originally made in my Morphy Richards soup maker and, more lately, again in my Ninja Soup Maker – but it can be adapted to any other soup maker or cooked in a pan on the stove.
👩🍳 Making It
Once you have peeled and chopped the potatoes and sliced the onions and pepper, it’s time to add everything to the soup maker.
If you are using a soup maker that has a tendency to burn, make sure you give everything a good stir so that none of the tomatoes are sitting on the bottom.

Set the soup maker off on chunky.
At the end of the chunky soup maker cycle, you can either serve it as it is or pulse/blend it a few times so that it is partially chunky.
Season with some salt and pepper according to taste.

Spanish Potato Soup (In A Soup Maker)
Ingredients
- 500 g potatoes peeled and chopped
- 1 red onion sliced
- 4 cloves garlic crushed
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp crushed red chillies
- 1 red pepper chopped, seeds removed
- 1 tin chopped tomatoes
- 500 ml vegetable stock
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to the soup maker. When I am using tinned tomatoes (or passata), I tend to add that last so that it has no chance of sticking to the bottom and burning. It's never happened to me yet, but I've heard that it can happen.
- Add the vegetable stock pot and hot water up to the line.
- Mix the ingredients thoroughly and place the lid on the soup maker. Select the 'chunky' setting.
- At the end of the chunky soup maker cycle, you can either serve it as it is or do a quick pulse/blend to partially blend it.
- Taste the soup and if you want some extra heat, sprinkle some more dried chilli flakes on top.

Thank you for a really gorgeous soup recipe. We decided to keep it chunky and tomorrow when I warm up the remaining 2 portions we will try it on the smooth setting. Instead of making a pudding we are definitely into soup first the main course. Thank you again.
