Green Herb Rice

Method

Green Herb Rice

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, heat olive oil over medium heat, add minced garlic, and sauté for 1 minute. Add the rice, vegetable broth, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until rice is cooked. Remove from heat, fluff with a fork, and stir in chopped parsley and cilantro.

Cassava Chips & Chipotle Mayo

  1. 2

    Prepare the Cassava Chips

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Fry the cassava slices in batches until golden and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels, seasoning with salt immediately.

  2. 3

    Make the Chipotle Mayo

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, chipotle in adobo sauce, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Chimichurri Skin-on Potato Fries

  1. 4

    Bake the Fries

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the potato fries with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through until crispy.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Chimichurri

    In a bowl, combine chopped parsley, oregano, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well. Once the fries are cooked, drizzle the chimichurri over them before serving.
