The French Connection

Hey everyone! For today's recipe I'm combining two classic French dishes with bread : The mushroom toast and the baguette with Brie and honey. On y va!

Ingredients

Ingredients
- Brie de Meaux
- French bread
- white mushrooms ( champignon de Paris )
- 2 eschalots
- 1/2 glass white wine
- 1 tbs honey
- fresh parsley
- a handful of walnuts
- olive oil
- 1 clove of garlic
- coarse sea salt
- black pepper





Preparation

Finely slice the eschalots in rings. Heat up some oil in a pan and cook the onions. Add a tbs of honey and let the eschalots caramelise. When they start to turn brown take them of the fire. Put a piece of baking paper on a baking tray and put the eschalots under a grill until they are crispy.

In the meantime cut the mushrooms in slices and chop the clove of garlic, the parsley and the walnuts. Heat up some oil and cook the mushrooms. Make sure your oil is hot enough and leave the mushrooms. They need to colour, so don't be to quick to turn them over. Add the white wine and let all the fluid cook out. Season with salt and pepper and add the chopped parsley.

Cut the bread in two parts, add slices of Brie, top with the mushrooms, walnuts and honey glazed onions.

Music

Chainsmoker, womaniser and musical innovator : Serge Gainsbourg. The song is from the filmscore of the movie " Cannabis ", composed by Serge Gainsbourg with the help of arranger Jean Claude Vannier with whom Gainsbourg would again collaborate the following year on  "Histoire de Melody Nelson". Bon appétit!
