Rostad morot med grillad sallad, krutonger och cashewsås

Ett vackert inslag på middagen och buffén, eller en förrätt att dela på!

Rostat morotsstomp med grillad hjärtsallad, surdegskrutonger och syrlig cashewsås

4-6 portioner som förrätt eller tillbehör

Ingredienser

1 kilo morötter, med skalet kvar

4 små hjärtsallad

2 tsk rapsolja

Flingsalt och nymalen svartpeppar

Syrad rödlök

2 rödlökar

2 dl vatten

1 dl äppelcidervinäger

1 msk lönnsirap

Cashewsås

3 msk cashewsmör (eller 1 dl cashewnötter blötlagda i minst 4 timmar + 1 dl nytt vatten)

3/4 dl vatten

1 msk färskpressad citronsaft

1 tsk tamari, eller annan soja

Flingsalt och nymalen svartpeppar

Topping

2 skivor dagsgammalt surdegsbröd

1 tsk kallpressad rapsolja

Flingsalt och nymalen svartpeppar

Smörgåskrasse

Gör såhär

Värm ugnen till 175°C.

Skrubba morötterna, lägg på en ugnsplåt och blanda med lite olja. Rosta i mitten av ugnen i ca 30 minuter, tills de blivit ordentligt mjuka och skalet fått en vackert gyllene färg. Låt svalna något, mosa sedan till ett stop på ett stort platt fat.

Skala och skär rödlökarna i tunna klyftor. Koka upp vatten, vinäger och lönnsirap. Lägg i rödöken, sätt på ett lock, dra av från värmen och låt stå i minst 20 minuter.

Mixa ihop ingredienserna till cashewsåsen tills helt slätt (skölj först av cashewnötterna om du blötlagt hela, innan du mixar med vattnet). Smaka av med salt och peppar.

Riv brödet i små bitar, rosta i en torr stekpanna tills de får lite färg, ringla över rapsolja och en nypa salt och ta bort från värmen.

Skär hjärtsalladhuvudena i kvartar, skölj av och låt rinna av. Pensla med lite olja och grilla eller stek bitarna runt om i stekpanna tills de får fin färg. Lägg ovan på morotsstompet.

Toppa med syrad lök, surdegskrutonger och smörgåskrasse. Dra några varv med pepparkvarnen över fatet, och ringla över cashewsåsen.

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

Gör såhär

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.

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!

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.

Quinoa and tofu salad with roasted sweet potatoes

What's-in-the-fridge on a bed of quinoa - with the right staples at home it can hardly go wrong! 

A normal day at my apartment involves opening the fridge to see what veggies the upcoming lunch or dinner might involve. The day I came up with this salad I found sweet potato, half a cauliflower head, a bunch of parsnips, some baby spinach and tomatoes from my parents garden. Together with some quinoa (that I always have at home, often already cooked), a good quality cold pressed olive oil (also a staple at my home) the lunch was served! 

 

Quinoa and tofu salad with roasted sweet potato

Serves 4

 

Ingredients

270 g extra firm organic natural tofu

2 small sweet potatoes 

6 parsnips 

2 dl uncooked black quinoa

1 small cauliflower 

250 g plum tomatoes 

100 g baby spinach

1 tbsp cold pressed coconut oil (preferably taste neutral)

 

Topping

1 handful of pecans 

good quality cold pressed olive oil to drizzle 

flakey salt 

 

How to

Drain the tofu well and wrap in layers of kitchen roll. Then place in between two chopping boards and put something heavy on top. This is to press out all the excess water so you get a really firm tofu, which will then soak up all the flavours it will be mixed with really well. Let sit for at least 15 minutes, but the longer the better. Tear the tofu in to smaller pieces. Whisk together tamari and paprika powder, and pour over the tofu. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes. Fry in coconut oil right before serving until lightly brown and crisp. 

Pre heat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Wash the sweet potatoes and parsnip well(when using organic vegetables keep the peel, does a lot both for flavour and texture!) and cut potatoes in to big chunks and parsnips in to big slices. Put on a baking tray and toss around with some olive oil. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until potatoes and parsnips are nice and soft (I like my parsnips to be kind of al dente though), tossing everything around half way through. Sprinkle with dried ramson, ord your favourite herb, ones roasted.  

Cook the quinoa according to the instructions on the packaging. Shave the cauliflower using a mandoline, a cheese slicer or a really sharp knife. Wash and cut the tomatoes in the middle. 

Toss tofu, sweet potato, parsnip, quinoa, cauliflower, tomatoes and spinach together. Drizzle with olive oil. Topp with pecans and sprinkle with your favourite flakey salt!
