-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 egg sponge
filling:
1/2 pound sliced lean bacon -- chopped
1 1/4 pound leeks -- green tops
-- discarded, whites
-- halved lengthwise,
-- washed
well -- and chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 tablespoon softened unsalted butter
1 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a skillet cook the bacon over medium heat, stirring occasionally,
until it is just crisp, transfer it with slotted spoon to a paper
towel lined plate and pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat. Cook
the leeks in the fat and the butter over medium low heat, stirring,
until they are softened, stir in the cream, and bring the liquid to a
boil. Simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, until it is thickened
and the cream is absorbed, remove the skillet from the heat, and stir
in the Parmesan, the caraway seeds, the parsley the mustard, the
bacon, and salt and pepper to taste.
Spread the filling over the warm egg sponge in an even layer, leaving
a 1-inch border all around, roll the roulade jelly-roll fashion,
beginning with a long side, and trim the ends on the diagonal. With
the aid of the towel and the wax paper transfer the roulade, seam side
down, to an ovenproof platter, spread it gently with the butter, and
sprinkle it with the Parmesan. Bake the roulade for 10 minutes, or
until it is heated through and the Parmesan is melted.
