Recipe
Trinxat
Andorran cabbage, potato and bacon cake.
Ingredients
- 600 g potatoes
- 1 small cabbage
- 150 g bacon
- Garlic
- Olive oil
- Salt
How to make it
- Boil potatoes and cabbage until tender. Start over medium-high heat until the water or broth is bubbling, then lower to medium or medium-low and cook gently for 10-25 minutes, depending on size, until tender but not falling apart.
- Fry bacon and garlic. Use medium-high heat to get color, then lower to medium so the inside cooks through without burning. Turn only when the first side has a firm golden crust.
- Mash vegetables with bacon fat. Continue gently and check texture rather than only the clock; the dish is ready when the main ingredient is tender and well seasoned.
- Press into a skillet and brown like a cake. Use medium-high heat to get color, then lower to medium so the inside cooks through without burning. Turn only when the first side has a firm golden crust.
