Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 2 min.

Prepare 250 g cooked spinach, then chop coarsly with a knife.

Stage 2 - 7 min.

Lightly fry 125 g small pieces of bacon in a frying pan without adding any extra fat.

When cooked to your taste, tip the bacon into a bowl, leaving the cooking fat in the pan.

Stage 3 - 8 min.

Prepare 1 onion, and chop finely.

Tip into the pan and cook in the bacon fat until lightly browned, then salt and pepper.

Stage 4 - 8 min.

Pour 1 glass dry white wine into the pan and deglaze it, then leave to cook until the wine has completely evaporated.

Tip into the bowl with the bacon.

Stage 5 - 3 min.

Chop 2 hard-boiled eggs, then tip into the bowl with the bacon.

Stage 6 - 3 min.

Add the chopped spinach and 50 ml cream to the bowl, salt, pepper and mix well.

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Place a little of the mixture in a long sausage shape near one side of a sheet of brik.

Stage 8 - 2 min.

Roll up the sheet of pastry to form a long roll.

Stage 9 - 25 min.

Use up the rest of the filling like this.

Stage 10 - 15 min.

Pour 100 ml oil into a large frying pan on medium heat. There should be a shallow depth of oil all over the pan to cook the rolls properly.

When the oil is hot, cook the rolls evenly all over, turning them with tongs if possible (the easiest way).

Do be careful not to let them brown too much. This can happen quickly, so you must keep an eye on the rolls from the time they go into the pan.

Stage 11 - 25 min.

Prepare the rice with cashew nuts: cook the rice, and then add 100 g cashew nuts, coarsly chopped and dry-roasted in a pan for 2 or 3 minutes.

Stage 12

Serve 2 rolls per person.

Remarks

The proportions for the filling can be varied according to your taste, so don't hesitate to add a little more or a little less of something.

Keeping: Can be frozen uncooked, but once cooked they do not keep.

Crème brulée

Crème brûlée (burned cream) is quite easy to prepare: it's a simple egg-cream dessert. The only difficulty is in making the delicious crunchy caramel layer on top. The perfect crème brulée (for me) is a cold and soft cream, with on top a nice hot caramel crust. This is a completely new version of the former recipe, with video.

Macarons (the original French macaroons)

This recipe really is "of the moment": the success of these small, highly-coloured cakes, in an infinite variety of flavours, is impressive. It's a recipe which needs some care, in order to produce a result worthy of a professional pastrychef. No problem, I will guide you through the recipe, particularly the tricky parts. This variety of flavours means that I test many alternatives, so don't be surprised if in the pictures the colour of the macarons changes, I used the best photograph available...

Bouquet garni

Used very frequently in French cuisine, a secret of French chefs, it adds flavour to a lot of recipes, and it's easy to prepare. The basic principle is to make a small bundle of herbs, bind them in green leek leaves and to tie it up, so that the whole thing can be removed and discarded easily after cooking.
