With family or friends, getting together over a good meal is always a privileged moment.
With my watercress salad with pears and fromage frais...
...I play the card of originality combined with economy.
- 1 bunch watercress
- 4 pears
- 200g fresh cheese
- 1 lemon
- 1 bunch of flat-leaf parsley
- 1 tablespoon of mustard
- Salt &pepper
Preparation:20 mins
1. I wash my watercress, remove the stems from the large stalks, wring it out and keep it in the fridge.
2. I peel my pears, cut them in half then remove the cores and seeds.
3. I cut them into thin strips and sprinkle them with lemon juice.
4. I wash and chop my parsley then place it in a bowl where I add my mustard and then little by little my fromage blanc.
5. I whip this preparation using a whisk or a fork to obtain a smooth sauce. I salt and pepper.
6. I arrange my watercress on plates, add my pear slices in a fan shape and top with the sauce.
It's ready ! I serve very chilled.
For the tastiest watercress, choose it with very green and tender leaves.
For good conservation (but be careful, no more than 2 days) wrap its roots in slightly moistened paper towels.
