5 hard boiled eggs
1 litre chicken stock
2 tablespoons snipped chives
2 tablespoons flaked toasted almonds
200g blanched almonds
2 x 300ml thickened cream
2 tablespoons sherry
Method: Peel eggs and separate yolks from the whites. Place the egg yolks and blanched almonds in a food processor and process until they form a smooth paste. Slice the egg whites into thin strips and set aside. Heat the stock in a large saucepan, add cream then stir in egg yolk and almond paste. Stirring, bring to the boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Season. Stir in the sherry and serve hot, garnished with flaked toasted almonds and snipped chives.
Serves 4.
