That looks really tasty! How did you do the pomme puree?

Thank you Jack, I did a simple sous vide technique involving a ziplock bag and constant watching on the temperature. I gathered all the ingredients shown in the video, but decreased the ratio since I only wanted to make a personal portion (I live alone.......)

Anyway, I cooked it for 25-30 minutes in ~190 degree F and while waiting, I made slow-toasted garlic to give that crunch and toasty distinct flavor which I really loved. Once it's done I mashed it without overworking, added the toasted garlic, and stir them all together with shredded cheddar (room-to-barely-melted temperature) while still hot.

And serve!

But you can instead add chopped parsley, basil, replacing half of the milk with broth, even bacon bits. You name it, it tastes amazing in any way.

(This was my 1st sous vide homemade meal and I'm waiting to make another one.)

Nice! That's how I usually like to do things with sous vide... Simple and rustic but with refined technique. Looks delicious!

HAHAHAHAHA you made my day, my chap. Greetings from Kentucky.

I absolutely agree. Though my sous vide technique was literally manual (no Anova, Joule, etc.), it yielded great result. And I just like to plate, making even an instant noodle gourmet (inspired by @chefjacqueslamerde from instagram)
