Ficelle Picarde: a delicious crêpe-based dish to enjoy on winter evenings.
From 2/1/2010 to 12/31/2010
Ingredients (for 6 servings):
- 250 g mushrooms, cleaned with a mixture of water and vinegar
- 12 slices of ham
- 50 cl single cream
- 75 cl light crêpe mixture
Preparation:
- Prepare 12 thin crepes, only lightly browned.
- Chop the mushrooms and sweat them in butter with shallots, add salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg.
- Reduce the juices and add a bit of cream.
- Spread out crêpes, cover with a slice of ham, garnish lengthwise with mushrooms and roll up the crêpe tightly.
- Place the ficelles in a buttered gratin dish.
Top the crêpes with remaining cream and sprinkle with grated Gruyère cheese.
Place in the oven to brown and serve very hot.
The ficelle goes perfectly with a nice salad and can be washed down with a beer.
Eddy Roze (an Internet user) has been there and shares his opinion with us:
"L'Aubergade in Dury (south of Amiens) is one of my favourite restaurants. I live in Amiens and I’ve been to this restaurant twice. I can guarantee that the establishment is excellent, they serve fresh products from the garden or market, nothing but quality products. The €39 menu will delight you with a few culinary and gustative surprises that will tickle your taste buds. Their desserts are absolutely fabulous! Worth noting: an extraordinary vanilla cream dessert, and that’s all I’ll tell you!! What’s more, the setting is nice: simple, yet classy. If you go there, you must visit the Cathedral in Amiens and get some fresh air along the Picardy Coast."
