Roast pheasant, chocolate roulade and this sublime soup... a new book features spectacular dishes from a decade of MasterChef champions
Not only is this dish visually spectacular - but it is an absolute taste sensation
My favourite way of serving this is to use elegant coffee cups and saucers. The Parmesan galettes need to be wide enough to balance safely on top of each serving cup.
Serves 4-6
- 250g (9oz) frozen peas or petits pois, plus 1tsp for the galettes
- 450ml (16fl oz) hot vegetable stock
- A few thyme sprigs, leaves picked
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1-2tbsp crème fraîche (optional)
- White truffle oil (see tip below)
For the galettes
- 80g (3oz) Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 2 slices of Serrano ham
- 1 packet of pea shoots
- A small handful of mint tips (the very tiny new growth buds at the end of the stem) or 6 mint leaves
- Edible viola flowers (optional)
Put the peas in a bowl, then pour boiling water over and leave to stand for about 5 minutes. Drain.
Put the peas (setting aside 1tsp for the galettes), stock and thyme leaves in a blender and blend until smooth and combined – in batches if necessary. Add more stock if the soup is too thick. Season well and blend again.
Chef's tip
White truffle oil brings a distinctive aromatic flavour to this soup and is available from larger supermarkets
AdvertisementMake the Parmesan galettes. Heat a heavy-based nonstick frying pan over a medium heat and sprinkle thin layers of Parmesan to make galettes wide enough for your serving cups.
When the cheese starts to melt, wait about 2 minutes, until it turns golden and bubbly. Immediately remove from the heat, leave for 1 minute, then transfer to a wire rack.
Shred the ham into strips. Scatter each galette with ham, reserved peas, pea shoots, mint and viola petals (if using).
To serve, stir the crème fraîche (if using) into the soup. Use a hand-held blender to froth up the liquid, pour into cups or serving bowls and spoon a head of froth over each.
Add a few drops of truffle oil to each cup and balance a Parmesan galette on top.
