Spinach Gratin
PROCEDURE:
1. Prepare the blini. Place the cassava in the perforated cooking pan and steam in your WOLF Convection Steam Oven using the STEAM mode at 210°F for 15 minutes or until fork tender. Remove into a bowl and mash until it forms a dough. Divide into 1 ½-inch balls and flatten until it resembles a pancake. Pan-sear or grill with no oil in a cast iron pan using your WOLF Induction Cooktop. Set aside in a baking tray.
2. Make the spinach gratin by combining tofu, cashew nuts, nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar, miso, and water in a blender and purée until smooth. Set aside. Heat olive oil in a deep pan and sauté onion leeks and garlic until aromatic. Add spinach and cook until heated through. Add tofu-cashew mixture and stir until thick. Season well with salt, pepper and paprika.
3. To assemble, top each blini with a tablespoon or so of the spinach mixture. For a smoky flavor, brown the top using the BROIL mode of your WOLF M Series Oven, about 2 minutes.
4. Serve with a sprinkle of munggo tempeh for added texture and flavor.
