at its best! —Marci Lutken
Ingredients
-
2.5 pounds
potatoes ( about 6 medium) well scrubbed, skin left on
-
half
red onion, peeled and roughly chopped
-
1 bunch
fresh dill - stems removed
-
2.5 tablespoons
arrowroot flour
-
1 tablespoon
fresh garlic
-
3 teaspoons
sea salt ( Maldon or Himalayan)
-
3 tablespoons
sunflower oil
-
2
lemons ( juice of)
-
1 teaspoon
light agave
-
1 teaspoon
apple cider vinegar
-
1 packet
silken tofu
-
2 teaspoons
mild curry powder ( Keens)
Directions
-
Par boil potatoes for 8 min. Drain then cool. Best left overnight. Grate potatoes (skin on) into a large mixing bowl. Blitz garlic, onion and dill in food processor until incorporated and texture is fine. Add to potatoes, mix, add sea salt and flour. Mix. Form into patties. I use a 1/3 cup as a 'scoop' to get a uniform size. Fry off a small amount to see if more salt needs to be added. Potatoes need salt so add to taste! Heat oil in fry pan and over medium heat fry in small batches. Turning once. Keep warm and serve with aioli.

To make the aioli...drain tofu and add to food processor. Add minced garlic, curry powder, salt, agave and lemon juice. Blitz until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.. Will keep in fridge for 3-4 days and delicious with steamed veggies.
