Ingredients
Method
Make the dressing in a small bowl: whisk together the mustard, vinegar and rapeseed oil, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
Heat 1 tbsp oil and sauté the herbs with the chopped chilli. Deglaze with the cognac, simmer for 2 min, then leave to cool before mixing in the mascarpone; fill a piping bag fitted with a plain nozzle.
Heat a little butter in a non-stick frying pan and brown the morels for 3 min on all sides over a medium heat.
Fill the morel caps with the herb cream using the piping bag, reserving the stems.
Arrange the salad leaves tossed with the dressing on plates, then top with the stuffed morels and the cut eggs.
