Consommé with Fried Peas

Ingredients

• Consommé ordinaire clair (clear ordinary consommé)
• 100 grams flour, sifted
• 1.5 eggs (or 2 very small ones)
• 1 pinch fine salt
• 200 millilitres heavy cream, very fresh
• oil or fat for deep frying

Instructions

1. Prepare a batter by blending the sifted flour with the eggs and a pinch of fine salt. Gradually add the very fresh heavy cream, stirring to form a smooth mixture.
2. Pour this batter into a colander with large holes, allowing it to fall into very hot oil or fat in small portions. Fry until golden and cooked through.
3. Transfer the fried pea-shaped fritters to a warm tureen and serve separately alongside the clear consommé.
