As a starter, let yourself be tempted by a velouté of lamb’s lettuce, pear and curry. An original way to enjoy this green plant with a delicate flavor. The pear contains numerous fibers and carbohydrates essential for the proper functioning of the digestive system, which notably promotes cardiovascular health. To do this, clean, peel and cut the vegetables before browning everything in an oiled and buttered pan. The curry enhances and flavors this dish wonderfully, while the cloud of cream counteracts the overly spicy notes. Ready in 5 minutes flat, this recipe seduces with its creamy and comforting texture.
As a main dish, there’s nothing like a sweet and sour mixture of duck breast and caramelized grapes. On a frying pan over high heat, cook the grapes coated with honey until caramelized, before placing the duck breast on top. To enhance everything, garnish with a sprig of rosemary, a drizzle of grape juice, and a few watercress leaves to decorate.
To finish in style, we offer you a chocolate bar with tahini and puffed rice. Sprinkled with flaked almonds, this is an ideal recipe to stock up on nutrients and strengthen the immune system. To reduce the time spent in the kitchen, prepare your dessert in advance, so that everything can rest for at least 45 minutes in the refrigerator.
