Frisée Salad With Poached Egg image

This is inspired by a classic French country salad. The traditional dish includes thick-cut bacon, but this version is great without the meat. You can serve it as a starter, but I like to make a meal of it.

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
1 sweet red pepper, very thinly sliced
6 thin slices baguette or whole grain bread, toasted, rubbed with a cut clove of garlic and cut into squares
6 large or extra-large eggs
1 tablespoon vinegar (any kind)
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar, champagne vinegar or red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
Salt to taste
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 small garlic clove, minced or pureed
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil, or 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil and 2 tablespoons walnut oil

Steps:

  • Combine the lettuce, herbs, red pepper and croutons in a large bowl.
  • Poach the eggs. Fill a lidded frying pan with water, and bring to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon vinegar to the water. One at a time, break the eggs into a teacup, then tip from the teacup into the pan (do this in batches if necessary). Immediately turn off the heat under the pan and cover tightly. Leave for four minutes. Lay a clean dish towel next to the pan, and using a slotted spoon or spatula, carefully remove the poached eggs from the water. Set on the towel to drain.
  • Whisk together the vinegars, salt, mustard and garlic. Whisk in the oil. Toss with the salad until thoroughly coated, and distribute among six salad plates. Top each serving with a poached egg. Season the egg with salt and pepper to taste, sprinkle with some thyme leaves and serve.

FRISEE-LARDON SALAD



Frisee-Lardon Salad image

Buying slab bacon rather than sliced allows you to cut it into the perfect size and shape.

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 ounces slab bacon, cut into 1x1/4" pieces
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
2 large heads of frisée, torn into bite-size pieces
Fleur de sel
2 tablespoons 1 1/2" pieces fresh chives

Steps:

  • Pour water into a large saucepan to a depth of 2" and bring to a boil. Reduce heat so water is at a gentle simmer and add white vinegar (it helps the egg whites stay compact). Crack an egg into a small bowl, then gently slide it into the water. Repeat with remaining eggs, waiting until the whites are starting to set before adding the next one (about 30 seconds apart). Cook eggs until whites are just set but yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to paper towels as they finish cooking.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Add bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the fat has rendered and bacon is starting to brown, 5-8 minutes. Add shallot, season with kosher salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until shallot is translucent and softened but hasn't taken on any color, about 5 minutes. Add red wine vinegar. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by threequarters, 5-8 minutes. Taste bacon vinaigrette and adjust seasoning with kosher salt and pepper if needed.
  • Place frisée in a large bowl and drizzle warm bacon vinaigrette over top. Gently toss until frisée is evenly dressed and slightly wilted and season with fleur de sel and pepper.
  • Divide frisée salad among plates and carefully set an egg atop each. Season eggs with fleur de sel and pepper and scatter chives around.
  • Eggs can be poached 4 hours ahead. Place in a bowl of ice water; cover and chill. Reheat in barely simmering water 1 minute before serving.

FRISéE SALAD WITH POACHED EGGS AND BACON



Frisée Salad with Poached Eggs and Bacon image

Categories     Bread     Salad     Egg     Side     Broil     Poach     Lunch     Bacon     Boil

Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 to 6 thick slices hearty country bread
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 clove garlic, halved, for the toasts, plus 1 clove garlic, very finely chopped
3 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
4 to 6 large eggs
6 slices thick-cut bacon, cut into lardons (see page 179)
1 large shallot, chopped
2 tablespoons best-quality red wine vinegar
2 heads frisée (about 8 ounces), washed, dried, and torn

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. To make the toasts, arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet and brush one side with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil about 4 inches from the heat until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the slices over and toast. Remove from the oven and while warm, rub one side of each toast with the cut surface of the halved garlic clove. Transfer to a rack and set aside.
  • Fill a large bowl with water and set aside (use hot water if serving the salad immediately, cold if making the eggs ahead). To poach the eggs, fill a large saucepan with 3 inches of water, add the white vinegar, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Break one of the eggs into a ramekin or teacup. Using the handle (not the bowl) of a wooden spoon, swirl the water to create a whirlpool effect, which will help the eggs hold their shape. Decrease the heat to medium-low so the water is at a gentle boil and slide the egg into the center. Reduce the heat and poach the egg until the white is solid and the yolk is firm but still soft to the touch, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the egg and transfer to the bowl of water; set aside. Return the water to a gentle boil, and repeat the process with the other eggs. The eggs can be poached up to 12 hours ahead and refrigerated in a sealed container. To serve them, reheat briefly in hot water.
  • Line a plate with paper towels. To cook the bacon, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp and brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to the prepared plate; set aside.
  • To make the dressing, drain off all but about 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the skillet. Add the shallot and cook until translucent, about 1 minute. Add the chopped garlic and cook until fragrant, 45 to 60 seconds. Add the red wine vinegar and stir to combine (the vinegar will emit strong fumes, so keep your face back from the pan).
  • Add the greens to the skillet and toss to coat and wilt slightly. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, divide the salad among individual serving plates. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs from the bowl of water to paper towels; gently pat them dry. Place an egg on top of each bed of dressed greens. Garnish with the reserved bacon and season with pepper. Serve with the garlic toasts.

2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
4 large eggs
1 large head of frisee (about 5 ounces), washed and spun dry
6 ounces thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/4-inch-thick strips
3 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large, deep skillet of water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, add white vinegar. Fill a saucepan with warm water; set aside.

Season egg with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest ingredients possible, especially the frisée lettuce. Look for leaves that are crisp and brightly colored.
  • Use a good quality red wine for the sauce. A fruity, full-bodied wine will give the sauce a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the eggs. The yolks should be soft and runny.
  • If you don't have lardons, you can use bacon or pancetta instead.
  • Serve the salad immediately after it is assembled. The eggs will start to cook if they sit for too long.
  • Conclusion:

    Warm frisée lardon salade with poached eggs in red wine sauce is a delicious and hearty salad that is perfect for a winter meal. The combination of the bitter frisée lettuce, the savory lardons, and the rich red wine sauce is simply irresistible. This salad is sure to impress your friends and family.
