Pork boulangère with boudin noir

Method

 
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4.

2. Grease a deep ovenproof dish with butter and layer the potato slices in it, together with the onions. Sprinkle with the garlic and thyme; pour over the stock so that it barely covers the potatoes, season and cover with foil.

3. Bake in the oven for 35-45 minutes. When cooked the potatoes should have absorbed nearly all the stock and a knife should easily slide through them. Once cooled, leave to chill in the fridge overnight.

4. The next day, use a round cutter, 7-8cm in diameter, to cut out 4 portions of the potato boulangère.

5. For the pork, cook the chicken stock until reduced by half.

6. Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4.

7. Season the pork cutlets and lay a portion of potatoes on top of each one. Surround each potato portion with three slices of boudin noir and several sage leaves. Place a slice of cheese on top and wrap the whole bundle in crepinette, pressing out any air.

8. Put the parcels in a baking dish and pour over the reduced stock; bake in the oven 35-45 minutes.

9. Serve with blanched French beans, chervil and chopped tomato.
