CHRISTMAS TREE

INGREDIENTS

gr.100 lentils, n. 1 medium boiled potato, a bunch of aromas (sage/rosemary/bay leaf), n. 1 clove of garlic, salt, a little extra olive oil.

PROCEDURE

Wash the lentils and put them in a pot with 300 ml of cold water, the aromatic herbs (tied with a thread so the rosemary needles do not disperse), the garlic clove and a little salt. Boil over low heat for about 25/30 minutes in a covered pot. Remove the aromas and garlic, add the potato crushed with the potato masher. Drizzle with a little oil. Work, kneading with your hands to form small balls the size of peanuts, which must be patiently rolled on the ingredients that

form the different colors:

RED: put 10 peeled almonds and a slice of red turnip in the mixer, salt

BRICK: put 10 peeled almonds and 4/5 dried tomato fillets in the mixer

GREEN: put a handful of pistachios and a little salt in the mixer

VARIEGATED: put black and green olives with capers and parsley in the mixer

ORANGE: put 6/7 almonds, a carrot, lemon juice and salt in the mixer

YELLOW: put 10 almonds, a pumpkin slice, a little onion, lemon juice and salt in the mixer

WHITE: put 15 almonds and salt in the mixer.

You can form small single-portion saplings or a large tree to be placed in the center of the table. Garnish with pomegranate.
