INGREDIENTS: 2 servings
- One leg of octopus stew
- A sweet potato grande
- A spring onion
- One leek
- One carrot
- 250 ml chicken broth
- A potato grande
- 1 egg
- Sunflower oil and olive oil
- 15 gr of wasabi
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- Salt
STEP BY STEP RECIPE:
- First we make a cream of sweet potato thick. Fry the spring onion and the leek cut in brunoise with a little olive oil, and when they are poached, add the carrot and the sweet potato peeled in pieces, fry another 5 minutes more and add the broth and a teaspoon of salt. Let cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes or until we see that the vegetables are very soft. If we see that the broth has evaporated too much we can add a little more. The idea is that the broth only covers the vegetables, and then pass it through the blender to obtain a thick cream. Salt, pepper and reserve.
- While the cream is being made, peel one of the potato and cut into thin strips. We steam them with a little salt or if you prefer, over low heat with a little olive oil until they are soft, but be careful, not too much so they do not break and we can assemble the dish well.
- At the same time, while the cream and potatoes are cooking, we prepare the mayonnaise. We will use an egg, a good splash of sunflower oil, a pinch of salt, soy and wasabi. With the turmix we beat and add little by little a little more oil, until we have a thick texture. Taste it, if you like it spicy add a little more wasabi! I pour the mayonnaise in a cooking bottle and put it in the fridge.
- The octopus, We will heat it according to the manufacturer's instructions. It is usually a few minutes in the microwave. Cut into small pieces.
- Finally, we assemble the millefeuille. With the help of a ring, on a plate, put a layer of thin potatoes, then a layer of sweet potato cream, and another of potato. Place the octopus, a sprig of parsley to decorate, and with the bottle, we put a few drops of mayonnaise on each piece of octopus, and then around the plate, as in the photo, but that's up to you, rich, it will be equally:)
