Steemit Iron Chef 2018 Act 01 Round 03, Cucumber Sauce

Hey guys, this is my entry for @progressivechef's Iron Chef challenge. Since I'm a big fan of vegetables, I decided to show you all how I make this amazingly delicious, super healthy and completely vegan cucumber sauce.

I just might have used a bit too much of everything, but the general rule of thumb for the amount of ingredients is:

  • some amount of cucumbers
  • half as much potatos
  • a quarter as much carrots
  • a quarter as much onions

(yes potatoes are missing, they're already cooking)

We cook the potatoes and brown the onions on some olive oil.

While the potatoes are cooking and the onions are browning, we peel and grate the cucumbers and the carrots. I used the western part of the grater for the carrots and the southern for the cucumbers.

We add a glass of water and the browned onions to the cucumbers and carrots, and start cooking it all together in a LARGE cooking pot (my bad for using a medium). We add some salt and black pepper to the mixture and cook it until it changes it's texture slightly. It should go from hard-to-stir to watery-goo after about 10 minutes. Don't be afraid to cook it on high heat.


20 minutes have passed, and the mixture is ready to be combined with the cooked potatoes. We add the cucumbers to the potatoes(or vice versa) and mix them thoroughly. At this point, you could use some kind of a blender to finely blend the whole thing if you'd like it to be creamy, but I prefer the raw taste and texture, so I only used a hand potato masher to mash the whole thing together.

Voilà!

I fell asleep directly after eating this yesterday, so I forgot to take a proof picture and took it this morning.
