3 heads frisee, inner white part only, washed well and spun dry
2 tablespoons olive oil
5-ounce slab of bacon, cut into 1/2-by-1-inch pieces
2 shallots, finely chopped
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

FRISEE AUX LARDONS

Provided by Marc Murphy

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 ounces thick-cut bacon, cut into lardons
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
4 large eggs
4 large handfuls frisee
1 cup (2 ounces) crumbled blue cheese
1/4 cup Red Wine Vinaigrette, recipe follows
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Twelve 1/2-inch-thick baguette slices, toasted
1 head garlic, cloves peeled
Olive oil, for cooking
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup vegetable oil or other neutral oil

Steps:

  • Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until browned and slightly crispy, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a plate with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
  • Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepot over high heat. Add the vinegar and stir to combine. Working one at a time, crack each egg into a small dish and slowly lower it into the water, sliding the egg out. Reduce the heat to maintain a light simmer and poach the eggs until the whites are set and the yolks are still soft, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Chop the frisee into 2-inch pieces, place in a large bowl and toss with the cooked bacon, crumbled blue cheese and vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper and toss until well combined. Divide the salad among 4 plates and gently place a poached egg in the center of each "nest" of salad. Divide the baguette slices among the plates and serve immediately.
  • Put the garlic cloves in a small saucepan and add enough olive oil just to cover. Cook over low heat until the garlic is soft and melting, 35 to 45 minutes, to make garlic confit.
  • Combine the vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper with 2 tablespoons garlic confit and 2 tablespoons water in a blender and blend on medium speed until smooth. (Reserve the remaining garlic confit for another use.) With the motor running, slowly add the oil in a thin stream until it has been incorporated.
  • Use immediately or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate. The vinaigrette will keep for up to 1 week.

For sauce
1/2 cup chopped shallots
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1 (750-ml) bottle dry red wine
2 garlic cloves, chopped
4 thyme sprigs
1 large parsley sprig
1 Turkish or 1/2 California bay leaf
1 (1/4-pound) piece slab bacon, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch sticks (lardons)
2/3 cup veal demi-glace or 2 tablespoons demi-glace concentrate plus 1/2 cup water
1/2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
For eggs and toasts
8 (1/2-inch-thick) baguette slices
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 garlic clove, halved
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
8 large eggs
For salad
1/2 pound frisée, trimmed and torn into pieces (4 cups)
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
2 teaspoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Make sauce:
  • Cook shallots in 1 tablespoon butter in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add wine, garlic, thyme, parsley, bay leaf, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and boil until reduced to about 1 cup, 25 to 40 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in upper and lower thirds.
  • Meanwhile, cook lardons in a small heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until browned but not crisp. Drain on paper towels.
  • Strain wine mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on and then discarding solids. Return to saucepan, then stir in veal demi-glace and bring to a simmer.
  • Stir together flour and remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter to make a beurre manié, then whisk into sauce and simmer, whisking occasionally, 3 minutes. Add half of lardons to sauce and keep warm off heat, covered. Wrap remaining lardons in foil and keep warm on rack in lower third of oven.
  • Cook eggs and toasts:
  • Brush baguette slices with oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toast in upper third of oven until pale golden and crisp, about 10 minutes. Rub garlic on toasts.
  • Meanwhile, fill a deep large skillet with 1 1/4 inches water, then add vinegar and bring to a simmer. Break 1 egg into a cup and slide egg into water. Repeat with remaining eggs, spacing them apart, and poach at a bare simmer until whites are firm but yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Make salad while eggs poach:
  • Toss frisée with vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt, then with oil, and divide among 4 plates.
  • To serve:
  • Lift each egg out of poaching liquid with a slotted spatula and gently pat dry (still on spatula), then transfer to a toast. Season eggs lightly with salt and pepper and divide among salads. Pour sauce over eggs and sprinkle salads with remaining lardons.

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.

Yield serves 4 as an appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
4 large eggs
1 large head frisée (about 5 ounces), washed and spun dry
6 ounces (about 4 slices) 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

Use a slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to the pan of warm water.
  • Place the frisée in a large bowl; set aside. Cook the bacon, stirring occasionally, in a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add the shallot; cook 1 minute. Add the red-wine vinegar; bring to a boil, swirling to combine. Pour over the frisée. Season with salt and pepper; toss to coat evenly.
  • Divide among 4 plates. Drain the eggs, and top each salad with one. Sprinkle the eggs with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the lardons. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the eggs gently. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This will prevent the greens from wilting.

Conclusion:

Frisée lardon with poached eggs is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is also relatively easy to make, so it is a great option for busy weeknights. With its combination of crisp greens, savory lardons, and perfectly poached eggs, this salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
