Gratin potatoes with Chiko Mediteran

This time around we used our fermented chickpea block Chiko mediteran as the main ingredient for our creamy sauce, which will sit nicely in between the layers of finely sliced potatoes.

FLAVOURED PLANT-BASED MILK

Chiko mediterran

Sugar-free oat milk

Celery tuber or cauliflower

White onion

Ginger

Garlic

Plant-based butter

Nutmeg 

Bay leaf

Salt

Pepper


METHOD

  1. Add all of the ingredients to the oat milk, except for the potatoes and the Chiko mediteran block. Cook for around 20 minutes over a moderate heat until all the ingredients have been dissolved. 
  2. Peel the potatoes. In case you have a processor you can chop them into thin slices, otherwise use a mandolin and grate them carefully.
  3. Combine the milk with the chopped Chiko block in a food processor. Blend until smooth, taste and season if necessary. The cream should be quite smooth and not too thick, leaving the potatoes with enough liquid in order to cook properly.
  4. Grease a baking tray with olive oil. Add a layer of potatoes, and a layer of cream, repeating until they reach the top of the tray. Finally, seal with another layer of potatoes and brush with olive oil.
  5. Bake in the oven for 55 to 60 minutes at 180C until golden brown.


Bon appetit!
