Croustipatates
Croustipatates are potatoes that are melt-in-the-mouth on the inside and very crispy on the outside, thanks to a double cooking process, first in water, then in the oven.
They're a perfect accompaniment to a variety of meat and fish dishes, but also a dish in themselves, with a little hot cancoillotte poured over them just before serving, for example.

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.
