Recipe

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 small egg, beaten
  • 25g panko breadcrumbs
  • ½ tsp dried sage
  • 150g Boursin® Garlic & Herbs
  • 1 tsp olive oil
For the dressing
  • ½ tsp Dijon mustard
  • 50ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • ½ tsp honey
For the salad
  • 60g rocket
  • red chicory leaves
  • 3 celery stalks, finely sliced
  • 1 red apple, cored and finely sliced
  • 50g pecans, toasted and roughly chopped
  • 50g dried cranberries

Method

Step 1
Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and line a baking tray with baking parchment. Add the flour and egg to two separate shallow bowls, then add the breadcrumbs and dried sage to a third shallow bowl and toss together.

Step 2
Lightly roll the Boursin® cheese in the flour, then the egg, and finally the sage breadcrumbs, making sure it’s evenly coated. Place on the baking tray, drizzle over the oil and bake for 15-20 mins until golden brown.

Step 3
Meanwhile, to prepare the salad, whisk all the dressing ingredients together and season to taste. Toss the rocket, chicory and celery with half the dressing, then spread out on a platter. Top with the apple, pecans and cranberries, then drizzle over the remaining dressing and place the Boursin® in the middle of the salad.
