Vegetable clafoutis

Name: Vegetable clafoutis
Prep time: 38 min
Cook time: 53 min
Total time: 1 h 31 min
Yield: 6 people
Cuisine: French
Ingredients: 500 g carrot; 3 tablespoons olive oil; 500 g courgette; 3 tablespoons olive oil; 1 onion; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 100 g cured ham; 2 eggs; 200 g liquid cream; 80 g grated cheese; 30 g flour; salt; pepper

Clafoutis, the traditional French batter puddings, are normally sweet, but here is a savoury version: a layer of mixed vegetables (pre-cooked in this case) in a gratin dish with a cheesy mixture poured over, then baked in the oven.

Here I have used diced carrots and courgettes, chopped onion, fried diced ham and a mix of cream, eggs and Comté.

Ice-cream Vacherin

Ice-cream vacherin is a festive French dessert. It consists of two different flavours of ice cream (blackcurrant and vanilla here) sandwiched between two circles of meringue, topped with whorls of Chantilly (whipped cream) which is then frozen. It is not too complicated, but involves a bit of work and quite a few trips to the freezer and back.
