Stuffed baguette

This baguette is "stuffed", rather than merely filled: hollowed out and refilled with a tasty mix of sautéed onions, fried bacon bits and eggs, before browning in the oven.

A useful way to use up a leftover baguette, even if it is already going dry. It makes a great dish that children love, and grown ups, too!

Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Rinse, peel and finely slice 1 spring onion (scallion), keeping the white and green parts separate.

Stage 2 - 5 min.

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small frying pan on high heat. When good and hot, add 100 ml small pieces of smoked bacon.

Fry until cooked, then transfer onto a plate, leaving the fat in the pan.

Stage 3 - 1 min.

Add the white part of the spring onion to the pan, salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute without colouring.

Stage 4 - 3 min.

Break 2 Eggs into a bowl and whisk for a few seconds.

Stage 5 - 2 min.

Add the bacon pieces, the cooked (white) onion, the raw (green) onion and 100 ml grated cheese.

Salt lightly, pepper and mix well.

Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).

Stage 6 - 4 min.

Cut 100 ml small pieces of smoked bacon in half and hollow out the middle with a serrated knife.

Sit the bread on a baking sheet.

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Fill up with the filling mixture...

Stage 8 - 30 min.

...and bake for about 30 minutes.

Serve hot, whole or cut into chunky portions, rather like a hot open sandwich.

Remarks

If you don't have spring onions, use a baby leek instead.

This basic idea for a stuffed baguette can be varied in lots of ways, changing and replacing this or that – the only limit is your imagination.

Keeping

Best eaten while hot, but can be reheated.

Flambéd bananas

The trick of this recipe is to end up with bananas caramelised on the outside, still firm on the inside, coated with a tasty syrup which is not 95% butter.

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...

Tiramisu

Classic italian recipe (the name means "pull me up" or more poetically, "take me up to the sky"). It's similar to a charlotte in its structure: layers of flavoured biscuits between layers of smooth cream.
