The classic of vegetables with potatoes but much more appetizing. Here comes the recipe!

50 g of snow peas
150 g of baby carrots
6 tablespoons of olive oil
Salt and pepper

ELABORATION

Boil the potatoes, with their skin, for 40 min in salted water. Drain them and when they are warm, peel them and pass them through the food processor with 2 tablespoons of oil, salt, and pepper.

Using a cylindrical mold, mount a puree disk on each plate and spread the vegetables on it. Salt and pepper it and serve it drizzled with olive oil.
