Green banana gratin (figue vert) simmered in chicken stock, mashed, enriched with eggs and cream, then baked under a cheesy bread crumb crust. A Caribbean-French side dish with warm spices.
Yum! I used organic beef stock, and also chopped a few cloves of fresh garlic instead of powder, never understand why use garlic powder when fresh garlic tastes much better. I browned the meat with canola oil. Overall it's a five-star dish, I would give it even more stars if I have a choice!
Braised leeks oven-cooked in butter and stock until silky and tender, finished with parsley. The kind of restrained French-style side that turns a humble allium into a dish worthy of any roast.
Creamy leek risotto with Parmesan and fresh parsley, built one ladle at a time with vegetable stock. A simple vegetarian Italian rice dish that works equally well with courgette (zucchini) for a summer swap.
Cubed eggplant simmered with green peas in ghee, coriander, cumin, turmeric, and whole chiles until the stock evaporates and a smoky charred crust forms on the bottom. An Indian vegetable dish where the burnt bits are the best part.
Blanched asparagus shocked in ice water to lock in bright green color, then drizzled with peanut oil and finished with minced shallots and parsley. A 15-minute healthy vegetarian side dish.
