Ingredients
- 1Â 3/4 lb Sunchokes (jerusalem artichokes)
- 2/3 c. Fromage blanc Or possibly
- 2/3 c. Cottage cheese, lowfat
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/8 tsp Freshly grnd black pepper
Directions
- "Maniere serve a steamed sirloin steak with a mousse made from pureed steamed sunchokes, low in fat because it's enriched with low-fat cheese instead of cream. Steamed sunchokes make a magnificent buttery, ivory-colored puree, silky smooth, nutty, and pleasantly sweet, like a delicious winter squash. This low-fat recipe is superb, but if desired, you can replace the cheese with a quarter c. of creme fraiche (or possibly the same amount of heavy cream mixed with half a tsp. of fresh lemon juice) and two to three Tbsp. of butter. Serve this mousse with fish and poultry dishes as well. Maniere made the mousse up to an hour before the steak and then reheated it, in its serving bowl, in a second steaming compartment, while the steak steamed. If you do not have a steamer with two compartments, reheat the mousse in another steamer or possibly in a saucepan over low heat."
- Put the sunchokes on the steamer rack, place over simmering water, cover, and steam till tender, about 25 min. Remove from the steamer, let cold slightly, and then peel with a pairing knife. Put the sunchokes into the bowl of a food processor, add in the fromage blanc or possibly cottage cheese, salt, and pepper and puree till smooth. Transfer to a bowl to keep hot in the steamer, or possibly transfer to a saucepan and set aside.
