Braised Capon with Chablis flavoured with Truffles

    Recipe by Jean-Pierre Vaury, le Moulin, La Coudre.

For 8 people:
- 1 capon of around 2 kg
- 1 bottle of Chablis
- 1 leak, 100 g of onions
- 200 g of carrots
- 1 bouquet garni 25cl of cream 1
- Burgundy truffle 50 g of butter
- Oil, salt, pepper

 

Preparation:
1
- Cut the capon in pieces. Lightly brown the pieces in a casserole.      Moisten with the Chablis and stock, add the garnish of flavours (leak,      onions, carrots and bouquet garni), and leave to cook for 30 minutes.
2 - After cooking, remove the pieces of capon and reduce the cooking      juices, bind them and add the cream. Check the seasoning.
3 - Just before serving, sprinkle the capon with truffle Julienne.


The Chef's advice:
White wine Chablis Grand Cru les Clos
The truffle will be outstanding, especially if it is stimulated by the hints of minerals and mushrooms that are typical qualities of les Clos.
