Equipment
Ingredients
Sweet Potato Puree
- 1 large sweet potato
- ¼ cup (56.75 g) vegan butter
- 1 cup (236.59 ml) oat milk
- 5 cloves garlic confit
- ½ tsp (0.5 tsp) sea salt flakes
Oyster Mushroom Scallops
- 4 large oyster mushrooms
- 2 cups (473.18 ml) vegetable stock (low sodium)
- 1 sheet nori sheets
- 2 tbsp tamari
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp white miso paste
- 4 tbsp vegan butter
- 1 tbsp baby capers
Instructions
- Start by peeling and chopping the sweet potato. Add it to a pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 30 minutes until the potatoes are tender when poked with a fork. Drain the water.
- In a small saucepan on low heat, add the oat milk and vegan butter. Cook for a few minutes until the butter is melted. Be careful not to boil the milk.
- Add the cooked sweet potato, milk and butter mixture, garlic confit, and salt to a blender. Blend on low speed until the mixture is perfectly smooth.
- For the mushroom scallops, combine the vegetable stock, nori sheet, tamari, sugar, and miso paste in a pot and bring to a soft boil.
- Cut the mushroom stem into 1 cm length pieces, aiming for 3 pieces per mushroom. Score small squares on each side with a sharp knife for a scallop-like appearance. Boil the mushrooms in the broth for 15 minutes, then drain.
- In a pan on medium heat, add the vegan butter and mushroom scallops. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until slightly golden. Add the capers 2 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
- Serve the mushroom scallops on the sweet potato mash, and drizzle the melted butter over the scallops. Enjoy your gourmet vegan meal!
