  • 1 lemon
  • Mint
  • Brown poultry stock

Preparation

  • Open the white pearl-hen fillets in order to fill them (make an incision in the centre and flatten the fillet out so as to be able to make a roll).

  • Soak the raisins in a bit of water. Stuff the white fillets with the veal filling and add a little bit of confit. Next, roll them up in aluminium paper and put in the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Bring salted water to the boil. Pour a bit of olive oil into the taboulĂ© and add the water. Next, cover with a paper film and allow to rest for 5 min.
  • Then add the mint, tomato, lemon juice, raisins and pepper.
  • Allow the stock to reduce to half the volume and then add the confit and mix. Add seasoning.

Garnishing:

  • Cut the roll into three equal parts and arrange them vertically on the plate.
  • Put the taboulĂ© in a cookie cutter and add a few pieces of fig. Add some sauce.
