Servings 12 puffs

Ingredients
  

Puffs

  • 2-3 cups cold mashed potatoes unseasoned
  • ½ brown onion diced
  • 1 tsp fresh basil
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp fresh parsley
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Peanut Sauce

  • cup no salt peanut butter
  • tbsp lime juice
  • tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 3 tbsp coconut aminos
  • water to thin if needed

Instructions
 

Puffs

  • Prepare mashed potatoes ahead of time and allow them to chill. I placed it in the freezer for 15 minutes, forking through at 10 minutes.
  • Dry-fry the onion in a small amount of water or vegetable stock until caramelised.
  • Mix all ingredients well.
  • Mould the mix into ping-pong ball-sized and place them on a single layer in the air fryer.
  • Air fry for 20 minutes at 200°C

Peanut Sauce

  • Add all ingredients together in a small bowl and whisk with a fork.
  • Add water as needed if it is too thick.
  • Be sure not to make it too firm to dip your puffs into, or you will lose the potato in the sauce, which is never favourable :).
