Brick pastry with egg, mushrooms, celeriac, lardon and apple

We are on a brick pastry roll.  It’s the most incredible stuff.  Far more delicious than the ubiquitous filo and easier to handle. 

It is called feuilles de brick in French, Tunisian in origin and the French have adopted it with resounding aplomb.  So having French supermarkets ever present in Dubai we are able to buy said brick and ….

We thought about a gorgeous combination with this amazing pastry that you can actually tie off without it breaking.  The result ?   Sauted mushrooms, crème fraîche and an egg.  Served it with a cube of cooked lardon sitting on a little bed of celeriac puree with dried apple pieces.

Oh my gosh, how the heck yummy was this???  My tummy is rumbling even thinking of it because I want to eat it again right now. It is fun cooking together.  When the results are this delicious? Even more so!

Damn good idea Andy.
