Autumnal reds and coppers - so pretty.
I made these sweet potato, pepper and kale in a paprika galette last month for Vegan Month.
The galette is filled with a little bit of Cavolo nero aka black Tuscan kale from my garden. These were the only stems from my garden that had not been transformed into shredded green 'lace' by the ferocious white cabbage butterflies.
I decided to add some smoked paprika to the galette pastry so that it gave it that faint copper like colouring. I have done this in the past with turmeric and even spirulina powder, so it also imparts a little flavour too. The individual galettes are quite substantial like a tartlet, but were served with a side of green salad, though a salad of Quinoa or mixed beans would have been most welcome too.
I am sharing this with Karen and Janie for their Bonfire Night/Halloween edition of Tea Time Treats and also Jennifer at My Blissful Journey who is hosting Vegan Midweek Munchies and Vegan Yofo.

DeleteBonjour Madame Galette ! Lol
ReplyDeleteThey all look stunning and I'm convinced that the flavours are pretty awesome too.
I'll soon try out one of your recipes. Promise. xxx...x
Bonsoir Madame Patricia.
DeleteSo pleased you like, thank you so much - ps I didn't have any galettes in France this time round, plenty of quiche and baguettes!
These look delicious!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sarojini
DeleteLook lovely - I tried a galette tonight that was ok but needs a little work - I love the idea of a little colour to the pastry - do you have the recipe somewhere?
ReplyDeleteHi Johanna,
DeleteHere is the link to the recipe that I was playing with, I am happy with it now, It was all plain flour this time round, but you can add in some spelt or wholemeal if you wish. Plus 1/2 teaspoon paprika, up to you if you want it smoked.

DeleteI love cavolo nero - and the fact that it's homegrown too is even better. The galettes really look like the type of food autumn is made for!
