Appetizer: | Shrimps in basil sauce |
Course: | Fillet of salmon in broccoli sauce |
Dessert: | Cheese cake |
Wine: | Cartizze |
Ingredients:
Appetizer: Shrimps in brine, a
bunch of fresh basil, 250 gr. of mascarpone cheese (you can use a
Philadelphia cheese, if you are not able to find a genuine
Italian mascarpone), olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper.
Course: Fillet of salmon, broccoli,
garlic, white wine, olive oil, white flour, salt, pepper, 1
anchovy, parsley, fresh cream.
Dessert: short pastry, 150 gr. of Roman ricotta cheese, 2
eggs, sugar, vanilla in powder, 1 tin of conserve of berries.
Preparation
Appetizer:
Wash and dry the leaves of basil and put
them in a blender with the cloves of garlic (remove the green
core), salt and pepper and turn the blender on. Add a thread of
oil while the blender is working until it becomes creamy. Pour
mascarpone in a bowl and add the cream of basil and mix until the
compost becomes uniform.
Pour the sauce on a dish, then pour shrimps well dripped, that
you will have previously seasoned with juice of lemon on the
sauce.
Course:
Prepare two frying pans both with oil and
crunched garlic and heat it.
Put the fillets of floury salmon,in the first frying pan having
care of turn them often, add the wine and make it tighten, up to
a dense sauce.
Put the anchovy in the second frying pan and make it loosen, then
add the broccoli that you will have previously boiled in salty
water.
Stir the broccoli in the sauté for some minute and add the cream
and cook until the cream doesn't become well thick.
Blend all with a hand blender and join the cream with the salmon
and cook for 5 minutes at low fire, stirring the frying pan to
avoid it to attach.
Pour the all in a tray that you will have previously bedecked at
your taste, and dust generously with the milled parsley.
Dessert:
Separare il tuorlo dall'albume e montateli
separatamente aggiungendo lo zucchero e la vaniglia, quando il
tuorlo sarà cremoso e l'albume montato a neve, uniteli e
continuate a sbatterli, aggiungendo la ricotta. Quando sarà una
crema omogenea, versatela negli stampini contenenti la pasta
frolla e metteteli in forno per 40 minuti. Rovesciate la
marmellata nel bicchiere del frullatore e fatela frullare per
qualche minuto, finchè non sia completamente cremosa. Versatela
sulla ricotta, appena il dolce sarà raffreddato.
Attenzione: questo dolce va mangiato il
giorno dopo la preparazione e va tenuto al fresco, ma NON in
frigorifero.
Put the short pastry in two pudding moulds of aluminum. Separate
the yolk from the albumen and whip them separately adding the
sugar and the vanilla, when the yolk will be creamy and the
albumen whipped to snow, join them and continue to beat them,
adding the ricotta. When it will be a homogeneous cream, pour it
in the pudding mould containeining the short pastry and bake in
oven for 40 minutes. Pour the jam in the blender and beat for
some minute, until it is completely creamy. Pour it on the
ricotta, as soon as the cake will have cooled.
Attention: this cake has to be eaten the day after the
preparation and should be kept cool, but NOT in refrigerator.
