Hello, young Padawan<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Today, we’ll make a seasonal puree with early carrots. Yes, they are already there and promise us a nice meal to enjoy. A simple recipe, but with a few spices that will make all the difference, so here we go!<\/p>\n

Spring puree, Chill style.<\/h6>\n

For 3-4 servings<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A nice bunch of early carrots (around 8-10 carrots)<\/p>\n

A nice potato<\/p>\n

1 tsp of cumin<\/p>\n

1\/2 tsp of nutmeg<\/p>\n

1 tsp of butter<\/p>\n

2 tbsp of liquid cream<\/p>\n

Salt, Madagascar pepper<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Recipe<\/h6>\n

Peel and wash the carrots and potato. Cut the carrots into slices and the potato into cubes. The smaller the pieces, the quicker the cooking will be.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Place the carrots and potatoes in a saucepan, add water halfway up, add the spices, cumin, nutmeg, salt, and pepper, and cook over medium heat for 15-20 min. Check the cooking by slicing a piece of carrot and potato; the vegetables should be tender. Turn off the heat.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Add the butter and sour cream, and blend using a blender or potato masher. The puree should be smooth, creamy, and neither too thick nor too liquid. If necessary, add a little water or cream, depending on your preferences. Keep warm.<\/p>\n

Presentation<\/h6>\n

Place a few spoonfuls of this sumptuous carrot puree, creamy and spicy as desired, on your most beautiful deep plates or small bowls.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Unleash your culinary creativity with this dish. The best possible accompaniment is a grilled sea bass fillet, but don’t be afraid to experiment- a tuna steak will also work very well. For a refreshing twist, serve it with a small mesclun salad containing arugula and balsamic vinegar.<\/p>\n

As for wine, I would choose a red, a light Italian, or a French Loire wine.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On these beautiful notes, I wish you an excellent appetite and a good weekend, and see you next Thursday for new adventures!<\/p>\n
