Beetroot stamp

It's getting colder. Summer is really over now.

So it's time for different stamps.

Stamps are made of mashed potato and it's a Holland kind of thing.

Specially kale stamp. Hmm I love it.

Now it's time to make beetroot stamp. 

What you need:

1 ½ kg floury potatoes 

50g butter 

300g smoked bacon 

1 onion 

500g cooked beetroot 

1 apple

Peel the potatoes and cut into equal pieces. Boil in salted water for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat 25g butter in a frying pan and fry the bacon for 6 min. till they are crispy. Cut the onion into half rings. Add the onion to the bacon and bake for 1 min.

Peel the beetroot and cut into cubes. Add the beets and bake for  4 minutes.

Remove the core from the apple and cut the apple into pieces.

Add them to the beet mixture.

Drain the potatoes and catch some cooking liquid. Mash the potatoes with the remaining butter and the broth with potato masher until you've got a smooth puree.

Add the beet mixture to it and mash it up again.

Season it with some salt and pepper if you want.

This is a gluten free, dutch dish.
