Ingredients

  • 15 g per person Baerii Heritage caviar

For the potato chips

  • 4 medium-sized potatoes
  • Fine salt as needed
  • Peanut seed oil as needed

For the pea mousse

  • 1 tablespoon of evo oil
  • 100 g fresh or frozen peas (defrosted before use)
  • 1/2 packet of saffron
  • Salt
  • Flower pepper
  • 60 g fresh cheese
  • 0.5 ml whole cream
  • 1 shallot
  • Sugar as needed
  • Apple vinegar as needed

Method

For the potato chips

Wash the potatoes, dry them and, without peeling them, cut them very finely (just under 1mm) with the help of a mandoline.

Dab the slices one by one with a clean dish towel (or paper towels).

Pour plenty of peanut oil into a frying pan and, when it has reached the maximum temperature of 160° C, dip the potato slices (a few at a time). As soon as they have finished sizzling and have turned golden, quickly remove them from the oil with a skimmer, letting them drain and lay them on a tray lined with kitchen paper. Then salt them.

Arrange the potato chips well spread out, trying not to overlap them, so that the excess oil is absorbed by the paper.

For the pea mousse

Finely chop the onion and gently sauté it in oil. Add the peas and cook them slightly. Season as desired with saffron.

Season with salt and pepper. Set aside half of the peas and blend the rest with an immersion blender. Mix the puree with the cream cheese.

Whip the cream well and incorporate it into the mousse with half the peas set aside. Season as needed with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes.

Blanch the shallots and cut them into fine rounds. Soak them in water, sugar and apple cider vinegar.

Once all elements have cooled, serve the potato chips garnishing with the pea mousse, sweet and sour shallots and Baerii Heritage caviar.
