Tonight's Purple Carrot dinner: White bean walnut patties with mashed yam, asparagus, and kale
This was decent -- not great, not bad. Baked patties made from white bean, walnuts, oats, parsley, mint, and garlic. Yam mashed and flavored with garlic and vinegar (I added some togarashi spice as well). Sauce is vegan mayo with lemon juice and dill. They called for the garlic to be added raw to the mashed yam and the patties (which were only to be baked for 15 min) so I doubled the garlic and sautéed it first. Also stir-fried the asparagus and kale instead of boiling/steaming it and added just a touch of ponzu.
Mashed yam with vinegar is quite good. Will have to remember that.
