    METHOD

    TO MAKE THE TOTS Grate the plantains with a food processor grater attachment or a handheld grater. Mash them with a fork or potato masher until the mixture is chunky but holds together in a bowl with the coconut oil, gluten-free flour, and sea salt.

    1 inch (2.5 cm) mild-flavoured cooking oil in a cast-iron skillet, heated to 190°C/375°F Form cylinder shapes with about 1 tbsp (15 g) of the plantain mixture by pressing it together. Repeat until all of the plantain mixture is gone. Put a few tots in the hot oil at a time (you should hear it sizzle and pop when you gently drop them in).

    Fry the tots for 2 minutes on one side, then flip and fry for another 2 minutes, or until browned. To absorb excess oil, place the fried tots on a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat the frying process until all of the tots are cooked.

    To make the mojo sauce: In a blender, combine the olive oil, garlic, lime juice, and salt and puree until smooth. Pour the mixture into a small saucepan and heat for 2 to 3 minutes, or just long enough to soften the raw garlic.

    Serve the tots in a large serving bowl and the mojo sauce in a small serving bowl right away.

    Protein: 33.1g
    Sugar: 13.9g

    METHOD

    TO MAKE THE FONDUE Drain and rinse the cashews before combining them with the white beans (plus the liquid from the beans), soy-free non-dairy milk, beer, nutritional yeast, tapioca starch, garlic, both vinegars, and mustard in a blender. Transfer the cheese sauce to a large saucepan after puréeing the mixture until very smooth.

    Bring the mixture to a low boil over medium heat, whisking frequently to prevent the bottom from burning. The fondue will thicken, and you want it to get hot enough so that the tapioca starch dissolves completely. When the fondue is dipped into, it should leave a thick coating of sauce on the whisk or spoon. Add the salt and stir to combine.

    Serve the fondue in a small slow cooker, fondue pot, or glass bowl. Arrange the broccoli, carrot sticks, toast cubes, apple, and pretzels on a serving platter and serve with skewers for dipping.
