Un: Guilt Your Food By Madhu Lahoty : I combine my understanding of ingredients and international cuisine, and my own exclusive technique to create gourmet dishes potato brick, that is truly healthy (vegan, gluten-free, almost no oil) that would be relished by Indian palates. I have been using this unique combination to create dishes that look spectacular and taste fabulous for my family for over 20 years, and will share some of these treasures with you through a weekly column on TFN.
This week’s innovation is Potato Brick
Almost everyone loves potatoes – especially when they are deep fried (which is sadly not healthy)!
However, when not deep fried this starchy vegetable can be very healthy to consume.
Un:guilt always brings you something amazing on the plate, and staying true to that promise today I am presenting the humble potato glorified into a gourmet dish. Made into a brick and topped with mixed peppercorns and almonds !
