Steps for Cristina and Pierre Chomet 's poularde, green curry

  1. Prepare the poularde: remove the supremes and season with salt and pepper. Add the lemongrass and ginger.
  2. Vacuum-seal for 25 min at 61°C: vacuum-seal or wrap the bird with the white stock in an airtight freezer bag, then gently immerse the open bag in water (the pressure of the water will naturally expel the air) before resealing. Snackeeze the chicken skin-side down, then add the fleur de sel and mignonette pepper.
  3. Prepare the vegetable curry: place all the finely chopped ingredients in a mortar and pestle to a curry paste (this can be done in a food processor). Heat 250 g white stock (or bouillon) and 250 g coconut milk in a saucepan. Add the green curry paste and leave to infuse. Strain through a sieve, then adjust the seasoning.
  4. Prepare the vegetables: cut the Jerusalem artichokes in half, then bake at 180°C (th. 6) for 45 min. Wash the carrots and fry in olive oil. Finally, sauté the Brussels sprouts in olive oil.
  5. Finishes: make an herb salad with the coriander, basil and parsley sprigs and the Vietnamese coriander stems. Emulsify the vegetable curry and arrange on plates.
