Steps for Tristan Weinling 's Quail, Watercress &Shit Beans
- Prepare the quails: remove the bones from the quails, and set the thighs aside (you can use them to make a rillette or a croquette, for example).
- Cut the quail carcasses into small pieces and brown in a saucepan until nicely colored. Deglaze with red wine. Cook for 5 min, then top up with water. Cook for 1 h.
- Prepare the sea beans: rinse and desalinate the seaweed, then cut into small pieces. Set aside.
- Prepare the watercress purée: cook the watercress in boiling water for 3 min. Remove and blend with the olive oil until smooth. Pass the sauce through a sieve and reduce by three-quarters to obtain a meaty jus.
- Prepare the rye crumble dough: mix the rye flour with the butter and add a little fleur de sel.
- Finishing: in a frying pan, grill the quail fillets on the skin until pink.
- Presentation: Place a small amount of watercress purée on the plate, followed by the quail fillet. Place the seaweed on one side and a little rye crumble on the other. Decorate with a few raw watercress shoots. Pour the sauce over the fillet.
