Surdegsmacka med morotskräm och Bärta Rosmarin & Vitlök

I betalt samarbete med Bärta

Det finns få saker som slå en matig macka till brunchen eller som en lättare lunch - om du frågar mig. Ett gott surdegsbröd som bas, något krämigt, lite grönt för fräschör - och sedan något som ger både smak, matighet och protein; Bärtas nya varmrökta pålägg gjort på fermenterade och groddade gula ärter, med smak av vitlök och rosmarin! MUMS.

Svenska företaget Bärta tillverkar U R G O D A produkter gjorda på fermenterade och groddade svenska baljväxter. Burgare, helbitar som funkar utmärkt att tillaga som en stek i ugnen, marinerade bitar perfekta för spett eller i en wok, röka produkter som kan skäras upp och läggas på mackan.

Nu har de precis lanserat två nya produkter - och för att fira detta har jag svängt ihop två olika rätter där de nya Bärta-produkterna spelar huvudrollen; Nedan en matig surdegsmacka, och här en enkel Höstsallad.

Här kan du läsa i vilka butiker Bärtas produkter finns. Min rekommendation? LÖP OCH KÖP!

Sötnötiga havrekakor med mandelsmör 

Ger 10 kakor

Efterrätter som går att förbereda helt är en god idé när det vankas trerätters tycker jag. Att de dessutom kan extraknäcka som lyxiga frukostkakor, eller eftermiddagsfika är ett stort plus! Du kan variera innehållet beroende på vad du gillar eller har hemma; cashewnötter, mandlar och mandelsmör kan bytas ut mot samma mängder av andra nötter, fröer och nöt- eller frösmör.

Ingredienser

2 msk chiafrön

1 dl vatten

1 tsk malen kanel

1/2 tsk vaniljpulver

1 nypa flingsalt

2 dl havregryn

1 dl cashewnötter + extra till garnering

1 dl pumpakärnor

1 dl mandelsmör, eller annat nötsmör

3/4 dl kokossirap, eller lönnsirap

Till garnering

1/4 dl finhackade mandlar (eller andra fröer / nötter som du haft i kakorna)

Gör såhär

Värm ugnen till 175°C.

Koka upp vattnet, blanda med chiafröna i en bunke och låt svälla i 5 minuter. Vänd ner kanel, vaniljpulver, salt och havregryn. Hacka cashewnötterna grovt, blanda ner i bunken tillsammans med pumpakärnorna. Tillsätt mandelsmör och sirap, rör runt till en smet. Forma till ca 10 bollar, tryck ut till runda platta kakor på en ugnsplåt. Garnera med cashewnötter och hackad mandel.

Baka i ugnen i 30 minuter, tills kakorna fått en lätt gyllene färg. Låt svalna.

Förvara i lufttät burk i kylen eller frysen.

En twist på den klassiska japanska pannkakan Okonomiyaki (försök uttala det, om du kan), här med smakrik kimchi i smeten! Toppa med groddar och skott för fräschör och extra näring, och gärna hackat päron för god sötma. Mixa enkelt ihop en läcker sås med smak av sesam och ingefära att servera till.

Dessa plättar är perfekta för brunch, helglunch eller middag-mitt-i-veckan. Det går fint att göra extra mycket smet, förvara den i kylen och sedan steka på strax innan servering!

Kimchiplättar med tahini- och ingefärssås

4-6 portioner

Ingredienser

3 stora nävar strimlad vitkål

10 cm purjolök

1 dl kimchi (finns att köpa färdig i den kylda grönsaksdisken)

1 dl havremjöl

1 dl kikärtsmjöl

2 dl vatten

2 nävar färsk persilja, grovhackad

1/2 tsk salt

Rapsolja till stekning

Tahini- och ingefärssås

1 dl ljus tahini

1 dl vatten vatten

2 msk tamari

1 msk äppelcidervinäger

2 cm färsk ingefära, skalad

Salt 

Till servering

Rädisskott

Alfa-alfagroddar

Sesamfrön

Päron, tärnad

Strimla vitkålen fint. Skär purjolöken på mitten, skölj noga och strimla fint. Lägg kål och purjolök i en bunke och massera med salt. Ställ åt sidan i 10 minuter. Strimla kimchin.

Vispa ihop mjöl och vatten i en separat bunke. Vänd ner kål, purjo och kimchi och blanda ihop väl. Vänd ner den hackade persiljan och rör om. Låt stå i 10 minuter. 

Mixa ihop ingredienserna till tahini- och ingefärssåsen i en höghastighetsmixer tills du får en fluffig sås (har du ingen stark mixer kan det vara bra att riva ingefäran innan du mixar). Smaka av med salt.

Värm upp olja i en stekpanna, klicka ut skedar av smeten och platta till lätt. Stek på medelvärme i ett par minuter på båda sidor, tills du får en fin gyllene yta. Gör likadant med resterande smet.

Servera plättarna med skott, groddar och päron. Ringla över tahinisåsen och strö över sesamfrön.

Mix your own warming drinks in no time at all! Start by making your own golden paste, it will most likely be a staple in your home ever after. I use it for everything from porridge and lattes to hummus and soups.

If you don’t have time - or nerves - to soak your cashews for the hot chocolate you can just use any plant mylk you like! Same thing with the turmeric latte, use your fave plant mylk, or try different ones or variation!

Creamy pumpkin saffron porridge with cinnamon apples, yoghurt, date caramel and crispy buckwheat

(recept på svenska längre ner)

- In paid collaboration with Fiskars -

A porridge inspired by yummy things warming up the chilly autumn, created together with the brand Fiskars and their new line Norden Steel (read more about why they make cooking even more fun below!). A porridge made of steel cut oats get a really nice al dente-taste to it, and by adding some gated veggies the porridge gets even more hearty. Try switching the pumpkin for carrots or parsnips for some variation, and also the topping can look in a million different ways! Something that you probably never wanna miss though is the c.i.n.n.a.m.o.n. f.r.i.e.d. a.p.p.l.e.s. They are the easiest thing to make yet one of my favourite things. Other than topping my porridge I also serve It with yoghurt and granola, pancakes, waffles or why not with a roasted Pumpkin and brussels sprout salad!

When I make date caramel and crispy buckwheat I make extra of everything - the date caramel stays well for weeks in the fridge, and the buckwheat for months in room temperature!

Creamy pumpkin saffron porridge with cinnamon fried apples, yoghurt, date caramel and crispy buckwheat

2 bowls

Ingredients

3/4 dl steel cut oats, soaked over night

1/2 dl buckwheat groats, soaked over night

2 dl grated pumpkin

3 dl water

1 dl oat mylk

1/2 tsp ground cardamom

1 pinch ground cloves

1 tiny pinch ground saffron

Flakey salt to taste

Cinnamon fried apples

1 red apple

1 tsp rapeseed oil

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1 tsp ginger, grated

1 tsp maple syrup (optional)

Date caramel

10 fresh dates, pitted

1/2 dl water

1 pinch flakey salt

Crispy buckwheat

2 dl whole buckwheat groats

1 tsp ground turmeric

1/2 tsp ground ginger

1/2 tsp ground cloves

For serving

Lingonberries

Toasted seeds

Plant-based yoghurt

Dried flower sprinkle

How to

Soak the steel cut oats (in 3 dl water) and buckwheat overnight, in separate bowls. Rinse the soaked buckwheat well. Bring oats, soaking water, oat mylk, pumpkin and spices to a boil and let simmer for 10 minutes. Add more water if needed. Add the soaked buckwheat and let simmer for 1 another minute. Salt to taste.

Slice the apple. Fry in a bit of oil together with the ginger until soft, season with cinnamon and fry for another couple of minutes. Add the maple syrup. Salt to taste. 

Mix dates and water until creamy. Salt to taste.

Crispy buckwheat. Pre heat the oven to 175°C. Bring a pot with water to a boil, remove from heat, add the buckwheat (not the soaked ones but the dry) and then rinse with cold water in a fine mesh strainer. Let drain then toss together with the spices. Put on a baking tray and toast in the middle of the oven until dry and crispy, takes about 10 minutes. Stirr around halfway through.

Divide the porridge in 2 bowls. Top with lingonberries, cinnamon fried apples and a dollop of yoghurt. Drizzle with date caramel and sprinkle with buckwheat, seeds and flowers.

- I annonssamarbete med Fiskars - 

En gröt inspirerad av råvaror och kryddor som värmer i höstmörkret, framtagen i samarbete med Fiskars och deras serie Norden Steel (läs mer om varför deras stekpannor och kastruller gör matlagningen ännu roligare längre ner!). Gröt gjord på kross (istället för gryn) får extra gott tugg, och med lite rivna grönsaker i blir gröten både mer smakrik och mättande. Pumpan kan bytas ut mot morot eller palsternacka för variation, och även toppingen kan varieras i oändlighet! Något som gärna alltid får vara med är dock de kanelstekta äpplena, med en touch av lönnsirap. Världens enklaste att svänga ihop och så väldigt gott! Förutom att toppa gröten med är de väldigt goda att servera tillsammans med sval yoghurt och granola eller varför inte till en rostad pumpa- och brysselkålssallad.

Jag passar på att göra en större sats när jag gör dadelkaramell och mitt krispiga bovete. Dadelkaramellen håller minst ett par veckor i kyl, och bovetet kan stå flera månader - även om det knappast lär finnas något kvar så länge eftersom det är perfekt att strö över det mesta!

Krämig pumpasaffransgröt med kanelstekt äpple, yoghurt, dadelkaramell och krispigt bovete

2 portioner

Ingredienser

3/4 dl krossad havre eller korn, blötlagda över natten eller minst 8 timmar

2 dl riven matpumpa, exempelvis Hokkaido eller Butternut

3 dl vatten

1 dl havredryck

1/2 tsk malen kardemumma

1 krm malen nejlika

1 knivsudd malen saffran

1 nypa flingsalt 

Kanelstekt äpple

1 svenskt äpple

1 tsp rapsolja

1/2 tsk malen kanel

1 tsk lönnsirap (valfritt)

Dadelkaramell

10 färska dadlar, urkärnade

1/2 dl vatten

1 nypa flingsalt

Krispigt bovete

2 dl torkat helt bovete

1 tsk malen gurkmeja

1/2 tsk malen ingefära

1/2 tsk malen nejlika

Till servering

Växtbaserad yoghurt

Torkade blommor

Gör såhär

Blötlägg krosset över natten i dubbel mängd vatten. Koka ihop kross, vatten, pumpa, havredryck och kryddor. Låt småputtra i 10 minuter, tillsätt mer vätska om det behövs. Smaka av med salt mot slutet av koktiden.

Dela äpplet på mitten, skär bort kärnhuset och skär resten i skivor. Värm upp oljan till medelvärme i en stekpanna, lägg ner äppelskivor och fräs i 5 minuter tills de mjuknar. Strö över kanel och lönnsirap, fortsätt fräsa tills allt täckts av den söta kanelen. Ringla över lönnsirap.

Mixa dadlar och vatten till en karamellsås. Smaka av med salt.

Värm ugnen till 175°C. Koka upp vatten i en kastrull, ta bort från värmen och häll i bovetet. Häll sedan av vattnet och skölj av bovetet med kallt vatten. Låt rinna av väl och blanda sedan med kryddorna. Sprid ut bovetet på en bakplåt och rosta i mitten av ugnen i ca 10 minuter, tills det är helt torrt och krispigt.

Fördela gröten i två skålar. Toppa med kanelstekt äpple och en klick yoghurt. Ringla över lite dadelkaramell och strö över krispigt bovete. Garnera med bovete.

Herby potato mash with green pea tempeh and courgette stir fry, tahini beet dressing and crispy salad

Potato + rapeseed + herbs = true love. Instead of mixing my potatoes to a smooth mash I like to keep it quite chunky. Serve with a super simple stir fry and a dressing to always remember! It actually feels a bit strange (yet awesome) to drizzle over such a colourful thing over your food! Try for yourself!

Herby potato mash with green pea tempeh and courgette stir fry, tahini beet dressing and crispy salad

Servers 4

Herby potato mash

400 grams new potatoes or small potatoes

1 Tbsp cold pressed rapeseed oil

1 organic lemon, zest + juice

2 handfulls fresh parsley

flakey salt and freshly ground black pepper

Green pea tempeh and courgette stir fry

250 grams green pea tempeh (or any tempeh of your choice) *

1 big courgette

2 spring onions

1 tsp cold rapeseed oil

1 Tbsp tamari, or any other soy sauce

cress

flakey salt and freshly ground black pepper

Tahini beet dressing

1 raw beetroot

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups light tahini (I like to use the light one for dressings rather then the darker one - made of toasted sesame seeds - as the dark one can taste a bit sharp)

3/4 dl / 0.3 cups water

1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tsp maple syrup

sesame seeds and dried flowers for garnish

flakey salt and freshly ground black pepper

Crispy salad

70 grams mixed leafy greens

1 handfull of radish

50 grams red cabbage

1 Tbsp toasted rapeseeds

How to

Scrub the potato, cut bigger ones in half. Boil potatoes until soft, takes about 15-20 minutes. Drain then mash with oil and lemon by hand using a potato masher until your preferred texture. Chop the parsley roughly and add to the mash. Salt and pepper to taste.

Crumble the tempeh. Slice the courgette and spring onion. Fry courgette and onion in a bit of oil until soft. Add the tempeh and fry for another few minute until it get a nice golden color. Pour over the tamari and let in sink in. Remove from heat. Salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with cress.

Peel the beetroot, cut in smaller pieces. Mix with rest of the ingredients for the dressing in a high speed blender or food processor until completely smooth. If you don’t have a high speed blender it might be a good idea to grate the beetroot before mixing it all together as that will help getting a smoother dressing. Salt and pepper to taste. Add more water for a more runny dressing.

Slice the radish and red cabbage thinly. Toss together with the leafy greens, drizzle with some cold pressed rapeseed oil and sprinkle with rapeseeds.

Serve the mash with the stir fry, dressing and crispy salad!

Enjoy!

• Tempeh is traditionally made of soy beans which is fermented and, furthermore tempeh often comes in small blocks, similar to but more firm then for example tofu. Now days you can find a few different types of tempeh in many supermarkets and organic stories.

Banana bread with coconut yoghurt, almond sauce and apple cinnamon compote

When I was in the making of my second book The new green protein I probably baked this banana bread at least 20 times. Over and over again, to make sure it got exactly the way I wanted. The perfect combination of sweet and savoury, moist yet not-as-moist-as-a-pancake and the perfect ratio of spices.

After all those baking sessions this one became a favourite and I more often then not have a loaf, sliced so I can take out 1 or 10 pieces, in my freezer for all kinds of occasions: weekend breakfasts, brunch, when having soup and I want something semi-sweet on the side, when I realise I don’t have any dessert to serve for tonights dinner party AND SO ON.

I use green banans for this recipe, just when they are soft enough to mash (if using too unripe ones they are hard as rocks), both because green bananas contain more fiber (instead of sugar) but most because I don’t like the super sweet banana flavour yellow bananas have. When using green this bread becomes both savoury AND sweet, and I serve then both as a dessert as pictured below - but also topped with hummus / leafy greens / avocado / cress / whatever! Both DELISH if you ask me!

So, done with the writing - time to bake some banana bread!

Banana bread with coconut yoghurt, almond sauce and apple cinnamon compote

Makes 1 loaf

Ingredients

3 dl / 1.25 cups oat flour

2 1/2 dl / 1.5 cups almond flour

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1 tsp ground cardamom

1 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

3 small green bananas

1 1/2 dl / 0.6 cups almond mylk

3 Tbsp chia seeds

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups cold pressed olive oil + extra for oiling the baking tin

Almond sauce

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups unsweetened almond butter

2 Tbsp water

a pinch of flakey salt

Cinnamon apple compote

2 red apples, cut in to pieces, peel still on

a splash of water

1 tsp ground cinnamon

a pinch of flakey salt

For serving

Coconut yoghurt

Ground cinnamon for dusting

How to

Pre heat the oven to 175°C.

Mix all the dry ingredients, except for the chia seeds, in a bowl.

Peel and mash the bananas until chunky.

Heat up the almond mylk, stirr together with the chia seeds, let sit for 5 minutes until you get your “chia egg”. Add to the dry ingredients, together with the banana mash and oil.

Oil a baking tin, put baking paper in the bottom. Pour in the batter. Bake in the middle of the oven for 55-60 minutes, until the banana bread turns golden. Take out, let cool for 5 minutes. Take out the loaf from the tin and put it on a cooling rack. Let cool completely. Slice it.

Mix the ingredients for the almond sauce until smooth. Salt to taste.

Fry the apple pieces in a splash of water together with the cinnamon until soft and sweet.

Serve a piece of banana bread with a dollop of coconut yoghurt, a big spoonful of cinnamon apple compote, drizzle with almond sauce and dust with cinnamon for a fancy look!

Hope you like it!

Cauliflower and chanterelle burger with fava bean spread, sauerkraut and shaved carrots

For a really tasty and juicy plant burger filled with flavours I like to bake all (well, most of them) the ingredients in the oven before mixing together my patty as that adds quite a lot of extra flavour! When they’re baked and all soft and sweet I mix it all together with some quinoa for extra protein, walnuts for some crunch and lots of herbs, then form in to patties and then oven bake, fry or grill them!

Serve between whatever bread you prefer, or maybe some crispy lettuce leaves, and make sure to add a few yummy toppings - like this fava bean spread with lots of herbs for creaminess, sauerkraut for extra juiciness and that lovely sour-in-a-great-way-flavour and raw carrots for some extra crisp!

Cauliflower and chanterelle burger with fava bean spread, sauerkraut and shaved carrots

8 burgers

Ingredients

1/2 cauliflower (300 grams)

200 grams fresh chanterelles, or 150 grams frozen or 20 grams dried

3 garlic cloves

1 dl / 0.4 cups white quinoa

2 handfulls of fresh parsley, or 2 Tbsp frozen fresh

10 fresh tarragon leaves, or 1/2 tsp dried

1 dl / 0.4 cups rolled oats

1 dl / 0.4 cups walnuts, chopped

1 tsp rapeseed oil

1/2 tsp salt

1 pinch freshly ground black pepper

Fava bean spread

150 grams fava beans, dried (OR use 1 package / 230 grams cooked chickpeas)

2 handfulls of fresh parsley, or 2 Tbsp frozen fresh

1 Tbsp cold pressed rapeseed oil

1 small garlic clove, finely grated

salt and freshly ground black pepper

Crispy carrots

3 carrots

1 tsp cold pressed rapeseed oil

pinch of flakey salt

For serving

sauerkraut (Can be bought in most supermarkets)

cress

Unsweetened rye bread, or any bread you like

leafy greens

How to

Pre heat the oven to 175°C / 350°F. Cut the cauliflower in smaller florets. Brush the mushrooms, fry in a pan (if using frozen ones just thaw them, if using dried soak them). Peel chop the onion and garlic. Put cauliflower, mushrooms, onion and garlic on a oven tray and bake for 30 minutes. Cook the quinoa according to instructions on the packaging.

Mix the roasted veggies, quinoa and herbs until a crumbly batter in a food processor. Add oats and walnuts and mix well using a wooden spoon. Let sit for 15 minutes. Form in to 8 patties. Put on a baking tray and bake in the oven for 20 minutes, until slightly goden and crisp around the edges. If you want some extra crisp you can finish by frying them in a bit of oil in a pan.

Cook the fava beans for 30 minutes, until soft. Remove any excess water. Mix with the rest of the ingredients in a food processor until a creamy spread. Add a bit of water for a creamier spread. Salt and pepper to taste.

Shave the carrots thinly using a potato peeler or mandolin. Toss together with a tiny drizzle of oil and pinch of salt.

Spread some fava bean spread on a slice of rye bread. Top with some leafy greens, a patty, sauerkraut, oil tossed carrots and cress. Add some extra fava bean spread on top and finish with another slice of rye bread.

Pumpkin tray with pea pesto, yoghurt and fresh herbs

So, the the idea with this dish is to start with a veggie (preferably in season) which you bake and then top with some legume pesto/hummus/bean spread etc. Serve it as a side to your dinner, part of a buffet or add a handful of cooked or soaked grains (oats, spelt, sorghum etc) or pseudo grains (quinoa, buckwheat) to make it a filling and complete dinner!

Pumpkin tray with pea pesto, yoghurt and fresh herbs

Serves 4 as a side

Ingredients

1 butternut squash or pumpkin such as Hokkaido pumpkin *

Pea pesto

250 grams green peas

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups pepitas/pumpkin seeds

2 handfulls of fresh basil

1 Tbsp nutritional yeast

1 Tbsp cold pressed olive oil

salt and freshly ground black pepper

For serving

Cammelina seeds **

fresh basil

red cabbage, raw shaved

How to

Pre heat the oven to 175°C / 350°F. Wash and cut the pumpkin in smaller pieces (but not too small - I like to serve quite big chunks!). Put on a baking tray and bake in the oven for about 25-30 minutes until soft and sweet. When baking pumpkins, butternut squash and courgettes I usually don’t use any oil since they contain quite a lot of water as it is! However - for that extra shiny cover and some crisp brush with oil before baking in the oven.

Mix all the ingredients, except for the pumpkin seeds, for the pesto in a food processor until your preferred pesto texture. Add the pumpkin seeds and pulse a few times. Salt and pepper to taste.

Add bid dollops of pea pesto straight on top of the pumpkin, drizzle over som yoghurt and sprinkle with camelina seeds!

* Other yummy things to put on your tray could be: cauliflower, new potatoes, courgette, aubergine, carrots and sweet potatoes JUST TO MENTION A FEW. Feel free to add your favourites below!

** Camelina seeds are fiber and protein rich tiny seeds which roasted taste a bit nutty. Gives a nice texture on top of salads, crisp bread toppings or porridge! Great to add to your smoothie as well. Also I've heard it can be used as a egg replacement but never tried it - any of you who’ve done it?

Trifle with berry sauce, coconut yoghurt and granola

One of those desserts (aka weekend brekky or brunch) which looks very pretty yet is super easy to make. The perfect combo! All the different components can be prepared, and be ready to put together right before serving!

When it’s apple season, or rhubarb season you could make an apple compote or rhubarb compote - or a combination OR a fresh berry and rhubarb compote instead! Well you get my point, the “sauce” can be done in quite a few ways!

Trifle with berry sauce, coconut yoghurt and granola

Lentil cracker with seeds and rolled oats

A staple which can vary in so many different ways! Depending on what seeds or nuts + flour I have at home my crackers always look different. This one though, with red lentils, have become one of my absolute favourites! Why? The lentils make the crackers if possible even more crisp - try for yourself!

My favourite way to serve them is with some kind of spread - you find a few of my favourites when scrolling though my recipes here on my website!

Winter stir fry with chanterelles, brassicas, Jerusalem artichokes and green pea and spinach dip

Stir fries - one of the worlds easiest and maybe quickest ways to cook! Use whatever plants you have at home and let that be the base of you fry! I like to use a wok pan because I find it easier to give it all a good toss and shake with that pan - but of course you could use just any. Most important thing is - just get cooking!

Winter stir fry with chanterelles, brassicas, Jerusalem artichokes and green pea and spinach dip
