A delicious dish, ideal for a banquet between fi ghting arch enemies or for the chilly days of winter.
Ingredients
- 3½ oz young garlic
- 1 clove
- 3½ oz smoked bacon
- 10½ oz plain petitsuisse cheese
- 1¾ oz raisins
- 2 eggs
- Salt and pepper
- 9 oz shortcrust pastry (from your bakery/cake shop)
How to Make It
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- When the wolves are howling and hunting deer around the castle, peel and remove the sprout from the middle of the garlic, then add it to a pot of boiling water with the clove. Cook for 30 minutes then remove the clove and carefully drain the garlic.
- Meanwhile, cut the bacon into slices and cook in a frying pan over high heat until the pieces are golden brown and crispy. Mix together the garlic, bacon, cheese, raisins, and eggs, and season lightly with salt (the bacon is already salty) and generously with pepper.
- Roll out the pastry, use it to line a tart pan, then fill with the garlic mixture. Bake for 45 minutes and enjoy before the next battle begins.
