Capuccino di patata di montagna

Cappuccino di patata di montagna, vongole, spuma di lemongrass, foie gras e polvere di prezzemolo

It is not a drink to bridle with but a greedy starred dish signed by chef Andrea Larossa of the Larossa restaurant. It is a precious mountain potato mousse that is first embellished with clams and foie gras, finally finished with lemongrass and parsley powder.

 

Ingredients:

Potatoes 250 g; Normandy butter; 100 g Clams

20 Milk 300 g; Lemongrass 1 berry; Spinach powder

6 g; Foie gras; 120 g Garlic 1 clove; Parsley 3 stems; Shallot 1; Extra virgin olive oil

Preparation

Peel the potatoes, divide them in half lengthwise and then into slices, immersing them in a bowl with water and ice.

Take the milk, add the lemongrass berry and bring the milk with the berry to 65 degrees in a saucepan, filter and let it cool. Once cooled, place in a siphon with two charges and let it rest in the refrigerator. In a saucepan, put 50 g of butter, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and the finely chopped shallot; stew the shallot well, add a pinch of salt and the potatoes drained from the water. Cook the potatoes until they are very soft, adding a little hot water every now and then. When cooked, put everything in a blender and blend the cream adding the remaining cold butter, seasoning with salt. Take a saucepan and add extra virgin olive oil, a clove of unpeeled garlic and parsley stalks (all cold).Turn on the heat and brown the ingredients, throw the clams and cover with a lid. Turn the heat down to low.

When the clams are open, divide the fruit from the shell and strain the cooking juice with a tightly meshed cloth.

Add the cooking juice to the potato cream still in the blender and blend for another 30 seconds; pass all the cream with a Chinese colander. In a large glass, add the still hot cream and clams; with the siphon create a layer of lemongrass milk foam, take the frozen foie gras and finely grate it over the foam. Sprinkle with the spinach powder.
