Ugnsrostad tofu med gul ärthummus och syrlig tahinidressing

I betalt samarbete med yipin

Hummus som bas, toppad med smakrik örtmarinerad tofu och grönsaker är en perfekt - och snabbfixad - måltid som passar både till lunch och middag. Här gör jag min hummus på gula ärtor - som först måste blötläggas i 12 timmar och sedan kokas i 45 minuter eftersom de inte går att köpa förkokta. För en snabbare variant går det fint att byta ut de gula ärtorna mot kikärtor eller vita bönor som du hittar på tetrapak i alla matbutiker. Vill du köra på med de gula ärtorna kan du följa instruktionerna kring tillagning på förpackningen.

Ugnsrostad örtmarinerad tofu och morötter med gul ärthummus, krispig fänkål och syrlig tahinidressing

4 portioner

Ingredienser

1 förpackning YiPin örtmarinerad tofu

6 morötter

1 fänkål

70 gram bladspenat

1 näve färsk mynta, valfritt

1/2 dl pumpakärnor

Gul ärthummus

4 dl kokta gula ärtor (alt kokta kikärtor eller vita bönor)

1 msk ljus tahini

1 msk äppelcidervinäger

1 näve färsk persilja

Flingsalt

Syrad gurka

1 gurka

2 dl vatten

1 dl äppelcidervinäger

Syrlig tahinidressing

3 msk ljus tahini

5 msk vatten

1/2 ekologisk citron, zest + saft

1/2 tsk lönnsirap, valfritt

Flingsalt

Gör såhär

Värm ugnen till 200°C. Skär tofun i kuber. Skrubba morötterna och skär i mindre bitar. Lägg morötterna på en bakplåt blanda med lite olja. Sätt in i ugnen och rosta tills mjuka och lätt krispiga i kanterna, ca 20 minuter. Blanda ner tofukuberna bland morötterna när 15 minuter återstår.

Mixa alla ingredienser till hummusen tills slätt. Smaka av med salt.

Skiva gurkan fint. Koka upp vatten och vinäger, ta bort från plattan och lägg i gurkan, sätt på ett lock och låt stå 10 minuter.

Rosta pumpakärnorna i en torr panna, på medelvärme, tills de börjar “poppa” och dofta nötigt.

Mixa ihop ingredienserna till tahinidressingen. Smaka av med salt.

Hyvla eller skär fänkålen tunt. Finhacka myntan. Blanda med spenat, rostad tofu och morötter.

Fördela hummusen på 4 tallrikar. Toppa med tofusalladen och syrad gurka. Strö över pumpakärnor och ringla över dressing.

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.

Mamas turmeric and ginger super shot

We all know that adding as much nutritious food to your day as possible is a great thing. And drinking a home juiced super tasty and refreshing elixir (kind of) is one of those things helping you get there!

As a person crazy about textures I prefer to eat my food instead of drinking. But if (when) you do find it hard to reach an high enough intake of fruits and veggies during a day (The Swedish National Food Agency recommends 500 g fruits and veggies per day. Preferably half of it being fruits and half of it veggies), we all have those days I’m sure, drinking a veggie shot can be a great way to add some of those grams.

A combination of eating whole veggies and fruits + drinking smoothies (where the whole ingredients are mixed) + drinking shots and veggie juices is a great way to make sure you get all the nutrients your body wants.

If you like to make your own shots and veggie juice I can highly recommend to invest in a slow juicer. What’s the deal with a slow juicer then? And what’s the difference from a more traditional centrifugal juicer? I’ve sorted it out - very briefly - below!

Both a slow juicer and a centrifugal juicer will give you nourishing juices, but a slow juicer is even more gentle to the things your juicing; furthermore using a slow juicer will keep even more of the nutrients + using it will give you the highest juice yield.

I’ve got a Witt slowjuicer and it’s brilliant! To be honest my mum is the most frequent user, she comes home to me every other week making shots for everyone i the family - and this is her favourite recipe! Enjoy!

Mamas turmeric and ginger super shot

Ingredients

50 g organic fresh turmeric

250 g organic fresh ginger

2 organic carrots

2 organic lemons

2 organic oranges

5 dl / 2 US cups water

1 pinch of freshly ground black pepper

How to

Peel the citrus fruits (I find the peel to be a bit too tough for the slow juicer). Cut everything in smaller pieces and put in your slow juicer or centrifugal juicer *.

Blend the golden juice with black pepper and water. Pour in a bottle and keep in the fridge, stays well for up to 7 days. Shake before serving.
