Cottage cheese, low-fat (1% milkfat)92 g
Sweet potato, raw, small dice100 g
Shallots, minced15 g
Olive oil, extra virgin5 g

Instructions

1

Prepare the aromatics: In a small pan, heat 2g of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced shallots and sauté until they are translucent and just beginning to turn golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside to cool.

2

Prepare the dip: In a food processor or using a blender, blitz the cottage cheese until it reaches a smooth, velvety, whipped consistency. Fold in the cooled shallots and a pinch of black pepper.

3

Prepare the crudité: Take the sweet potato and cut into thin, matchstick-style batons. These provide a sweet, earthy crunch that pairs perfectly with the creamy, savory cheese.

4

Plating: Spread the whipped cottage cheese into a small bowl, creating a slight well in the center. Drizzle the remaining 3g of olive oil over the top and finish with a crack of fresh black pepper. Serve alongside the chilled sweet potato batons for dipping.
