🛒 Ingredients

4 servings
  • 4 medium-sized potatoes
  • 2 yellow peppers
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • to taste salt

👨‍🍳 Step-by-step instructions

  1. Step 1: Wash the potatoes and cut them in half. Place them in the airfryer at 200°C for 15 minutes, or until they are tender. Meanwhile, prepare the yellow pepper sauce by blending the peppers with almond milk, olive oil, black pepper, and salt.

  2. Step 2: Once the potatoes are ready, place them on a plate and bathe each one with the yellow pepper sauce. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro, and serve immediately.

💡 Chef's tip

To achieve an even more intense yellow pepper sauce, make sure to blend the peppers with a little hot water before mixing them with almond milk and olive oil. This will help release the flavors and essential oils of the pepper, resulting in a more vibrant and authentic sauce.
