Vegan Trinxat with Savoy Cabbage, Crispy Potato Crust & Halloween Garlic Teeth

Andorra – A Tiny Mountain Country with Hearty Culinary TraditionsNestled high in the Pyrenees between France and Spain, Andorra is one of Europe's smallest countries. Its mountain cuisine reflects centuries of Catalan influence, cold winters and a love of simple, nourishing ingredients. Potatoes, cabbage, beans and rustic vegetable dishes have long been staples of traditional Andorran cooking. What Is Trinxat?Trinxat is one of the best-known traditional dishes of Andorra and the Catalan Pyrenees. Its name comes from the Catalan word meaning chopped or mashed. Traditionally prepared with potatoes, winter cabbage and pork fat or bacon, the mixture is pressed into a thick, tortilla-like cake and pan-fried until beautifully golden. The result is a wonderful contrast between a crispy exterior and a soft, comforting centre. This vegan version replaces the bacon with plant-based ham, uses aromatic mustard oil and finishes in the oven rather than the frying pan.
