Ingredients
Ingredients for 4 servings
- 1 very white veal Rognon
- 2 large onions
- 2 slices of smoked bacon
- 100 ml (6 tbsp.) cream
- 3 tbsp. cognac
- 3 tbsp. chicken stock or water
- 100 g (6 tbsp.) butter
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz.) ceps (porcini)
- Flat leaf parsley
- Salt and pepper
Method
  1. Peel and wash the onions; hollow them out as you would for a stuffed tomato. Reserve the top and trimmings.
  2. Cook the onions in lightly salted simmering water for 6 minutes. Drain and sauté gently in a skillet with butter, salt and pepper for 5 minutes.
  3. Peel and wash the ceps (porcini); slice them and sauté them in butter. Keep warm.
  4. Sear the kidney in butter for 6 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Degrease the pan and let rest for 5 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the cognac.
  5. Add the onion trimmings; deglaze with chicken stock or water. Cook for 3 minutes and add the cream.
  6. Cook the smoked bacon in an ungreased pan; set aside.
  7. Spoon some sauce onto the plates; place an onion in the center and fill with the ceps. Halve the kidney lengthwise and place on the onion along with the bacon; replace the top of the onion.
  8. Garnish with flat leaf parsley.
