Autumn mash-up

Herfststampotje

A colorful and surprisingly tasty variation on the kale and endive mash.
Tasty as a vegetarian dish with feta/goat cheese or simply with a juicy smoked sausage.

Preparation

  1. Boil the potatoes in water with a pinch of salt until they are almost cooked. Drain them and let them steam dry with the lid on.
    If necessary, wash and dry the spinach in the meantime and tear or cut into smaller pieces if desired. Slice the onion and roughly chop the walnuts.
    When the potatoes are cooked, add a knob of butter or a splash of olive oil and mash them coarsely with a potato masher. Fold in the spinach, red onion, and walnuts and serve with cheese or smoked sausage.
Tip: if you find the taste of fresh red onion too strong, you can briefly soak the slices in hot water to remove the sharpness.
