Peasant Girl with Veil
Preparation info
Appears in
Not a dish for the average peasant girl, I wouldn’t think, except maybe in Normandy. There she could find her apples and her Calvados which can be used instead of brandy, and good luck to her.
Ingredients
2 heaped tbsp 55 g 2 oz 750 g 1½ lb 2 scant tbsp 1 tbsp 300 ml ½ pint 115 g 4 oz
Method
Fry breadcrumbs in butter until golden brown. Cook the apples with the brown sugar in a little water and when cooked stir in the brandy. In a glass dish arrange alternate layers of breadcrumbs and apples, finishing with a layer of breadcrumbs. Cover the top layer with the whipped double cream and sprinkle the grated chocolate over the top.
