FRISéE AUX LARDONS



Frisée aux Lardons image

Here is a bistro salad classic of curly endive with bacon and poached egg that demands a kind of ruthlessness from its cooks. You want curly endive with tender, blanched centers. That means the darker green outer leaves must be removed and not used in the dish. You want to expose the pale inner leaves and keep them looking as natural as possible. Don't chop them. For the lardons, use bacon or, if you don't want its smoky taste, unsmoked pancetta. And when you fry them, take care to brown the lardons lightly so that they are crisp, but with a little give. Don't overcook them, or the egg.

Categories     quick, weekday, salads and dressings

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 handfuls tender, pale curly endive (about 10 ounces)
6 ounces thick-cut bacon, sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick lardons
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1/2 teaspoon finely grated garlic
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
4 eggs
12 thin slices from a French baguette, lightly toasted and rubbed with a garlic clove

Steps:

  • Wash and dry curly endive, place in a shallow salad bowl and refrigerate.
  • In a small skillet, simmer bacon for about 5 minutes in a small amount of water. Drain and dry skillet, then cook bacon over medium heat until lightly browned and crisp, but still a bit springy.
  • For the vinaigrette, whisk together mustard, vinegar and garlic. Whisk in olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Put a low-sided skillet on the stove and fill two-thirds with salted water. Bring to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a cup and carefully lower into the water. Poach eggs for 3 to 4 minutes, until whites have set and yolks are still soft. With a slotted spoon, remove to a towel-lined plate.
  • Lightly salt endive and toss with vinaigrette, coating well. Divide greens among 4 plates, place an egg in center of each, then add 3 croutons. Spoon warm lardons over salads. Shower with freshly ground black pepper and serve.

Provided by Food Network

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup white wine vinegar, plus 1/2 cup white wine vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 eggs
3 slices bacon, chopped
1 teaspoon sugar
6 cups frisee, cleaned
Croutons

Steps:

  • In a large, deep saute pan bring 2 1/2-inches of water to a boil. When the water comes to a boil, lower the heat to a bare simmer. There should only be small, infrequent bubbles on the surface. Add 1/4 cup vinegar and some salt to the water. Crack 1 egg into a small bowl, making sure the yolk remains unbroken. Gently slip the egg into the simmering water, using a spoon to make sure the egg is completely covered. Repeat with the remaining eggs. Cook to desired degree of doneness, 3 to 5 minutes. When the eggs are done, remove from the water with a slotted spoon. Place on clean paper towels or kitchen towel to drain. Set aside.
  • In a small saute pan, cook the bacon until browned and crisp. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the fat. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of white wine vinegar and stir, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook until the vinegar is reduced by half. Add the sugar and cook until it is dissolved. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour half of the bacon dressing over the frisee and toss with croutons. Divide the salad among 6 plates. Top each portion with a poached egg and a drizzle of the remaining dressing.

Time 4m

Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 heads frisée, tender light green leaves only, washed and dried (about 6 cups), or 6 cups mixed baby lettuces, washed and dried
1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, tarragon or chives
