I don’t know if you remember that Chef Kyrie and I had been cooking out of the Ratatouille cookbook..I think April may have been the last time we did though. I have felt bad about not making more from HER cookbooks so I promised her she could choose a recipe and we would make it.
She chose escargot.
So…here you go, Chef Kyrie’s Escargot based on the recipe from the Ratatouille Cookbook
We made the mistake of making these for dinner. They are very time consuming and would be better made as a lunch or snack. By the time you make enough for 8 people it is past bedtime…. :/
Flour tortillas, cut off the rounded edges to make a square.
Cream cheese softened
deli black forest ham, sliced on a 1 setting
deli Havarti cheese, sliced on a 1
organic baby salad greens
gherkin pickle, sliced in half at an angle
chives
chopped walnuts if you like
warm the tortillas. Spread with softened cream cheese, the place some of the lettuce on top. Sprinkle with the walnuts. Lay on a slice of ham, then the Havarti.
Roll up tightly. Slice in 2 equal pieces to make the snail shell. Place a gherkin, cut side down, next to the “shell ” to make the head and neck. Poke holes in the top of the gherkin and slice cut chives for antennae. The antennae are actually the hardest part.
Make these with your kids..they really are fun..and worth the time you invest.
