About

I bake this custardy vegetable pudding in individual gratin dishes so that they are ready in only 20 minutes (a large bread pudding can take up to an hour). Serve this with a simple watercress and orange salad.

Ingredients

Day-old artisan bread, ½ lb (250 g), crusts cut off, bread cut into ¾-inch (2-cm) cubes

In a large sauté pan, melt the butt

This dish lacked flavor, the asparagus was soggy, and the overall texture was unappealing. I would not make it again.

Sorry to hear the dish didn't work out for you. Asparagus can definitely go soggy so it may make sense to err on the side of leaving it a little undercooked. Were you able to find morels for this dish? They do have an amazing flavour.
