Sunchokes Bravas
Join Daniel and Mirra from The Perennial Plate as they make a crispy sunchoke recipe inspired by the iconic dish patatas bravas and their recent trip to Spain.
Supplies
- 1 pound sunchokes cut into half centimeter ovals.
- 2 cups olive oil
- Salt
Steps
- Heat your oil up to around 325
- Drop in one of your sunchoke slices, and if it sizzles, you are good to go.
- Once you add the slices, just keep an eye on them. It will take a good ten minutes to fry these through.
- Fry until they have gone past golden brown, but aren't burned… they'll continue to cook a bit outside the pan.
- Strain the oil. And set the 'Fries' on a paper towel.
- With fine grain sea salt, season liberally.
Supplies
- 4 green garlics (or 2 cloves garlic, or 2 bunches young garlic)
- 2 hot peppers
- 1 Tablespoon Dijon
- 2 Tablespoons sherry vinegar
- 1 cup grapeseed oil
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1 egg
- 1 Tablespoon tomato paste
Steps
- Char the green garlic and peppers over you stove top flame until each is black on all sides.
- Peel off the outer skin and roughly chop. For the chillis, take out the seeds if you'd like less heat.
- Put the garlic, peppers, Dijon, vinegar, egg and tomato paste in a food processor. Pulse until finely ground.
- Then turn on the processor and slowly add the grapeseed oil in a fine stream, and then the olive oil.
- Season with salt.
- Dip the fried sunchokes in the aioli and enjoy!
