Long live clafoutis! So I woke up this morning … every day surprises us with something new :-). But what is actually a\u00a0clafoutis (or clafouti)? Neither more nor less than a French dessert, originally from the Limousin region. Etymologically speaking, “clafoutis”<\/em> comes from the Occitan “clafot\u00eds”<\/em> which at the same time\u00a0comes from the verb “claf\u00edr”,<\/em> which means filling<\/em>. The original cherry clafoutis consists of\u00a0a semi-soft dough (an incredible texture that is a little bit more consistent than\u00a0the one of egg custard…\u00a0and so so soft) that is filling the gaps between the cherries.<\/p>\n

Turning back to today’s business, we step beyond the traditional sweet clafoutis with this fabulous result: an exquisite soft and vegetarian\u00a0bite.<\/p>\n

\"134_Clafoutis-calabacines-9A\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients (5 people)<\/strong><\/p>\n

2 large or 3 small courgettes<\/p>\n

4 eggs<\/p>\n

230ml whole milk<\/p>\n

50g wheat flour<\/p>\n

100gr cheese gratin (optional)<\/p>\n

1\/2 teaspoon nutmeg<\/p>\n

1\/2 teaspoon dried dill<\/p>\n

Salt and pepper<\/p>\n

Oil to grease the mold<\/p>\n

Directions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cut the courgettes in the long run using a mandolin. Put a pan of water to heat and when boiling, cook for 15 minutes. Drain and let cool.<\/p>\n

Put the eggs, milk, cream, flour and nutmeg in a blender bowl and whisk until lumps are dissolved. Season with salt to taste.<\/p>\n

Grease a mold whose length is somewhat higher than the asparagus and place them in a row. Spread half of the cheese and pour the egg mixture over. Then spread the remaining cheese, and finally, dill, rosemary and pepper.<\/p>\n

Preheat oven to 180 \u00b0 C and bake for 40-45 minutes until golden.<\/p>\n

To be considered<\/strong><\/p>\n

The orientation of zucchini’s sheets in the mold is on consumer’s\u00a0taste. Normally I put them in the long run, but in this case I wanted to try diagonally. Not bad, right?<\/p>\n

You can try this recipe with other vegetables, or also combining them. Some that I have already tried and are wonderful are: tomatos, asparagus and eggplant.<\/p>\n
