FOR THE MOREL ASPARAGUS RAGOUT:














Instructions:

Soak toast cubes in lukewarm milk. Finely chop onions and garlic and roast in hot butter until golden brown. Mix with the soaked bread cubes. Scald spinach briefly with boiling water, squeeze well and puree finely with egg and egg yolk (best in a cutter). Add to the bread mixture together with flour and grated cheese. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. With wet hands, form about 12 flat doughnuts (weighing about 50 g), put a little cottage cheese on each, fold and form into flat doughnuts again. Fry the doughnuts in clarified butter until golden brown on both sides and drain well on paper towels. Keep warm. For the ragout, cook the asparagus tips separately in salted water with a little sugar until firm to the bite, but not too soft. Chop the shallots and sauté in butter. Add the thoroughly washed and well drained morels and also sauté briefly. Deglaze with Madeira. Add asparagus tips and wild garlic and pour in cream. Let it boil down and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the spinach fritters on warmed plates and garnish with the ragout.
