Ingredients and Method
| Ingredient | Weight | Method |
|---|---|---|
| Zucchini (Peeled) | 500g | Peel the zucchini completely (to ensure a white "potato" look). Chop into 2cm chunks. |
| Garlic Cloves | 2 pcs | Steam the zucchini and garlic until very soft (about 8–10 mins). |
| Almond Milk | 30g | Drain the zucchini in a colander for 2 mins. Do not skip this; you want to remove the excess "vegetal" water. |
| Lemon Juice | 10g | Transfer to the Magimix 4200XL with the S-blade. Add the almond milk, lemon juice, salt and plenty of black pepper. |
| Xanthan Gum | 0.5g | Process on high. While running, dust in the xanthan gum. This emulsifies the remaining water and fiber into a glossy, thick "Silk." |
| Salt | 5g | |
| Black Pepper | to taste |
You can add nutritional yeast to taste here to make it a (sort of...) cheesy mash that you don't have to think twice about having three helpings of.
