Chicory flans

 Oh no! Please don’t tell me you’re throwing chicory out!

If you dont know how to cook it and you’ve already tried the classic risotto recipe, listen up: this is my tip!

Creamy and fluffy radicchio flan will charm you with its unique taste.

 

MAKES 4 FLANS
READY IN 45’

 

INGREDIENTS:

17 oz chicory (I used the round one, not too bitter)

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon grated onion

 

2 eggs

4 tablespoons Parmigiano cheese

3 tablespoons cooking cream

Salt and pepper to taste

 

Butter and breadcrumbs to taste

 

Parmigiano cheese to taste

Cheese + milk to taste

 

 

 

STEP 1: COOK THE CHICORY/RADICCHIO

Slice radicchio (not to thin).

Put oil and onion in a non-stick pan and fry for a few moments,

then add radicchio and mix.

Add wine and

cook over medium heat for about10 minutes,  then turn the heat off.

Now blend chicory and put aside.

 

 

STEP 2: MAKE THE MIXTURE

Place in a bowl: eggs, Parmigiano, cream, salt and pepper.

Beat with a whisk to mix the ingredients.

Once cool, add chicory.

 

STEP 3: FILL THE MOLDS

Melt a knob of butter, then use it to brush the molds. Sprinkle them with breadcrumbs

and fill the molds with the dough.

 

STEP 4: COOK

Place the molds in a large pan (I used the cake one), then fill with boiling water up to half the height of the molds and cook the flans in a preheated oven at 180 ° C for 30 minutes.

Once cooked turn them up side down  and decorate with Parmigiano and cheese melted with a spoonful of milk.

A PIECE OF ADVICE: for a light version, replace cream with milk!
