Posted on Jan 29, 2011 12:38:59 PM
Fourth of the series of the best dishes to accompany a lasagna recipe. This is a second main, called Galantine (ok ok this is actually a French recipe…), for meat lovers.
200gr chicken breast
200gr pork loin
300gr mortadella (the amazingly tasty Italian salami, go to an Italian deli, or to a Lidl if you have one in your area)
200gr cooked ham
100 ml milk
30gr butter
2 eggs and one yolk
50gr grated Parmesan
60gr stale bread
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
20gr pistachios
Grated nutmeg, salt and pepper
Soften the stale bread in the milk. Sauté the chicken breast for fifteen minutes, season with salt and dice it.
Finely chop mortadella and the cooked ham and mix half of them to the pork meat.
Grease of piece of tinfoil with oil. Add the other half to a bowl with bread, pistachios, Parmesan, eggs, yolk, a pinch of nutmeg, salt and pepper. Gently mix all the ingredients, transfer it to the tinfoil and give it the shape of a salami. Close and seal the tinfoil, then put it in a small pan with 4 tbsp of milk. Put that pan in a larger one with a little water and cook for 90 minutes with the bain-marie (water bath) technique.
Drain the galantine, let it cool and put it in the fridge for at least three hours. Remove the tinfoil and slice the galantine and lay the slices on a serving dish.
