Method :

  1. Peel and wash potatoes. Cut into pieces and place in a pan of salted water (coarse salt). Bring to a boil and simmer to cook until tender (a knife blade should slide easily into the flesh). Put them through a vegetable mill to obtain a nice thick purée. Transfer to a bowl. Set aside.
  2. Preheat oven to 180°C (Gas Mark 6). Cut Camembert into 5mm cubes. Set aside.
  3. Peel, wash and finely chop leek. In a frying pan, heat 10g butter, add leek and sweat for a few minutes. Season.
  4. Thinly slice the chicken escalope. In a deep frying pan, heat 10g of butter and sauté sliced chicken.
  5. Separate yolks and egg whites.
  6. Heat cream and add it (still boiling) to mashed potatoes. Season. Add egg yolks, leek and chicken. Stir well.
  7. Whisk egg whites to form stiff peaks. Delicately fold into the purée. Lastly, add pieces of Camembert.
  8. Divide mixture into 4 greased ramekins. Bake in oven for 20 minutes. Serve immediately!

Paysan Breton tip

For the soufflé to rise correctly, grease ramekins with a brush from bottom to top.
