Ingredients

Serves around 8

For a log mould 30 cm

Réf : 3205.30

Neutral Filling

  • 700 g chicken breast
  • 1 Egg
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 150 g peanut oil
  • 8 g freshly ground salt
  • 2 g freshly ground white pepper

Garnish

Instructions

Making the filling:

Cut the chicken meat into cubes and refrigerate.

Put the chicken in a cooled mixer bowl with the lemon juice. Blend until you obtain a ball. Add the egg, salt and pepper, then allow to thicken by gradually adding the oil. Remove from the bowl.

Refrigerate.

 

Preparing the asparagus:

Peel the white asparagus and cook “à l’anglaise”*. Cool and dry thoroughly with a clean tea towel.

Remove the fibrous parts of the green asparagus and cook “à l’anglaise”*. Cool and dry thoroughly with a clean tea towel.

 

*Cooking “à l’anglaise”: plunge your vegetables in a large quantity of boiling, salted water. Once cooked, plunge into icy water.

 

Assembly:

Line your mould with the slices of cured ham. 

Add a layer of the neutral filling.

Arrange the cooked asparagus neatly, making sure that there is a little filling in between each for consistency after cooking, until the ingredients are used up.

Cover with cling film.

 

Cooking:

Cook in a bain marie or steam oven at 80°C (until 70°C in the centre)

Refrigerate overnight.

 

Plating:

Slice and serve with a herb vinaigrette (mixture of crushed herbs, sherry vinegar, olive oil, freshly ground salt and pepper).
