Gratin potatoes with oyster jerky

If you are looking for a tasty festive treat, that can be prepared as a side or stand-alone dish, look no further. This time around we used our fermented chickpea block Chiko as the main ingredient for our creamy sauce, which will sit nicely in between the layers of finely sliced potatoes.


FLAVOURED PLANT-BASED MILK

Ingredients

Chiko mediterran

Oyster Jerky

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 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. Add chopped Oyster Jerky to the cream and mix everything together.
  5. 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.
  6. Bake in the oven for 55 to 60 minutes at 180C until golden brown.

HORSERADISH WITH APPLES AND KIMCHI

In the world of side dishes, the duo of horseradish & apples reigns supreme. It enriches every dish with its freshness and distinct spicy note of horseradish. This time we have added kimchi in order to open up a new dimension of flavours.


Ingredients

Kimchi

Horseradish

Apples

Apple cider vinegar

Sugar 


Method

  1. Finely grate the horseradish and apples, chop the kimchi. 
  2. Add apple cider vinegar and sugar to taste. Mix well. 
  3. Serve with the main course.


Bon appetit!
