Instructions

  1. Line dariole moulds with puff-pastry trimmings and bake these small timbales blind.
  2. Cut small lids from half-puff pastry with a fluted cutter 5 centimetres in diameter, gild them lightly and set a toothed point of the same pastry in the middle, leaving that ungilded.
  3. Bake the timbales and the lids in a slow oven.
  4. Prepare a scrambled egg mixture with Parmesan and finish it with 2 spoonfuls of Velouté reduced with truffle essence and 2 spoonfuls of diced truffle.
  5. Fill the timbales with the mixture.
  6. Dress on a napkin and place a lid on each timbale.
