Due to restaurant closures caused by the coronavirus, a farmer here in Denmark has 100 tonnes of Jerusalem artichokes that he can't sell. I received a kilo tonight in my weekly vegetable box and made this recipe. It was perfect as a single-dish dinner. The only accompaniment needed was a glass of red wine.
Fantastic and fantastically simple. I made it even easier by using/reusing the milk that cooked the Jerusalem Artichokes as the base for the cream sauce, rather than discarding the milk. Worked out great and I only had one pot to wash.
I can’t find Jerusalem artichokes. May have to go to Denmark!
Awesome in lieu of potatoes! Used J.artichokes and a medium parsnip. Didn't use milk or cream as I didn't have them, but used almond milk plus some oat milk/coconut creamer instead--didn't get as creamy but still delicious. As someone else suggested, I just reused the "milks" for the last step, and oops forgot to butter the pan! but it was fine. YUMMMMMM!
Delicious! I used gouda instead of gruyere.
