300ml Water Ask a question about this ingredient
1/2 - 1 teaspoon whole cumin seeds, dry roasted and crushed Ask a question about this ingredient
2 tablespoons Creme Fraiche / Greek Yoghurt Ask a question about this ingredient
Salt , to taste Ask a question about this ingredient
Optional - Freshly ground black pepper , to taste Ask a question about this ingredient
To garnish - 3 - 4 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley Ask a question about this ingredient
Heat butter in a pan and when melted, add all the vegetables. Stir and toss about for about 5 minutes...to enhance the sweetness of the vegetables
Ask a question about this stepThen add the water and garlic, put a lid on the pan and let simmer on low-medium heat for 10 - 15 minutes or until the vegetables are soft
Ask a question about this stepWhile the vegetables are simmering, heat a frying pan and toss in the cumin seeds. Shake/stir seeds in pan till they become fragrant and brown a bit, about 1-2 minutes. Once they are roasted, take them off the heat and crush in a mortar or with the back of a tablespoon (somewhat harder though than using the mortar and pestle!)
Ask a question about this stepWhen vegetables are done, mash the veggies by passing through a 'Potato ricer' for a smooth puree. For a 'chunky' puree, use a hand-held masher. Don't process in a blender or food processor or you'll end up with glue
Ask a question about this stepStir in Creme Fraiche/Greek Yoghurt and crushed cumin to the puree and taste. Salt if necessary. Sprinkle a little black pepper if desired
Ask a question about this stepServe immediately with loads of chopped fresh parsley...delicious!
