For the capon supremes

  • 1 liter of chicken broth
  • 40 grams of butter
  • salt

For the celeriac confit with truffle butter

  • 1 small celeriac
  • 150 grams of truffle butter
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • Fleur de sel

For the creamy parsley mash

  • 1 kilo of mashed potatoes
  • 30cl warmed milk
  • 200 grams of butter
  • ½ bunch of washed and chopped parsley
  • Fleur de sel

For the vitelotte chips

  • 1 large vitelotte potato
  • 20cl grape seed oil

For the juice

  • 4 chicken wings
  • 1 head of garlic
  • 1 scallion
  • 5cl of red wine

Method

Prepare the capon supremes

  • Salt the supremes. Poach them for 30 minutes in the broth at 70°C. Allow the broth to cool, then drain them. Brown them skin side down in a pan with 40 grams of butter. Cut them in half lengthways. Keep warm.

Prepare the celeriac with truffle butter

  • Preheat the oven to 180°. Peel the celeriac. Cut it into wedges. Season with fleur de sel. Brush the wegdes with olive oil. Place the celery wedges on a large sheet of baking paper in an ovenproof dish. Add the truffle butter cut into pieces. Close the baking paper over the celery wedges. Wrap the baking paper containing the celeriac with aluminium foil. Seal it well. Place in the oven for at least 30 minutes. The celeriac should be tender under the tip of a knife. Once cooked, remove the wedges from the oven and their wrappings. Keep warm.

Prepare the creamy parsley mash

  • Peel and dice the potatoes. Cook them in a pan of salted water until cold. Cook for 30 minutes until the potatoes are tender. Drain them. Return to the pan. Add the hot milk and butter and whisk vigorously to obtain a creamy texture. Adjust the seasoning and add the chopped parsley. Mix well. Keep warm.

Prepare the vitelotte chips

  • Peel the potato. Cut it very thinely with a mandolin. Dry them well with absorbent paper. Heat the grape seed oil. When it is hot at 180°, pour in the slices of vitelotte in several batches. Fry them until they become slightly coloured around the edges. Take them out and place them on absorbent paper. Add salt.

Prepare the juice

  • Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan. Brown the chicken wings until golden brown. Degrease the pan. Add the head of garlic cut in half crosswise and the peeled and coarsely cut scallion. Fry for 3 minutes. Add the red wine and reduce completely. Pour in water to the top and simmer for 1 hour. Strain and reduce the juice.

Presentation

  • Place two spoonfuls of creamy mash on a plate. Place a capon supreme on the mash. Place a wedge of celeriac next to it. Finish with the vitelotte chips and the juice.
