Unoiled mushed potatoes
In the monastery kitchen, the monks prepare a simple and easy dish with boiled potatoes that they mash. It's a nutritious dish that anyone can make. Try this easy recipe that we make on Mount Athos and be surprised by its delicious taste.
We peel the potatoes and cut them into medium pieces.
At the same time, we put water in a pot to boil.
When it boils, we add the potatoes.
When they are ready, we take them out in a bowl.
We pass them through the puree machine or simply mash them with a fork.
Little by little we pour the vegetable milk, until our puree has a creamy texture.
We add a little salt.
We mix well.
We pour the puree onto a plate.
We garnish the puree with a little oregano.
We can get a ready-made bag of mashed-potato instead of making it ourselves.
We can also make puree with tahini. When the puree is ready, dissolve a tablespoon of tahini in a little warm water and mix it with the puree.
The amount for the milk can vary depending on how thin we want the puree.
