Dinner: Sunchoke (Jersualem artichoke) and Salsify Soup with Vegan Samosas

Samosas were store-bought but the soup was Jay's creation, and he shared his deliciously simple recipe...

2 cups sunchoke
5 stocks salsify (we used both white and black)
2 large shallots
2 large toes of garlic
3lt water
salt
pepper
1oz Earth Balance (Vegan Butter)

Method:
- peel and slice the sunchokes and salsify, put in water so it doesn’t oxidize
- wash the sunchokes and salsify very well (sometimes they can be really gritty with dirt)
- once clean, put in pot, add water
- clean the skins off the shallots and the garlic, slice them a bit and add both ton the pot
- season with some salt and pepper (use your taste)
- let it all cook for 30 min
- turn the heat off and let sit for 10-15 min
- add the Earth Balance and puree it all together in a blender or using a wand
- taste, add more salt and pepper if needed
- Enjoy

it was beautifully white... I topped mine with some hot sauce, because I can't get enough of it...
 samosas were delicious as well...
 look at all the tasty goodness inside...
yum, yum, yum....
