Dish
Ask young and old Luxembourgers – everybody loves a Bouchée à la Reine! A buttery vol-au-vent pastry filled with a creamy chicken and mushroom ragout. For this vegetarian version, I’m using smoked tofu and flavouring the ragout with a hint of tarragon (as tarragon and mushrooms are a match made in heaven!).
This recipe was created as part of my “Recipes for Staying Home” show, to flatten the curve during the 2020 Covid-19 outbreak. The concept is to inspire people to cook comfort dishes at home – I show basic recipes that can be adapted with all kinds of other ingredients. You can watch the episode here.
This is a recipe from my cookbook ‘Flavours of Home’.
This recipe is made with Luxlait products, as part of our brand collaboration.
In your recipe of Bouneschlupp soup you mention “summer savoury”. What is this? Can I make this at home in India? Also can I use bacon instead of the sausage?
Thank you.

Hi Roy, summer savoury is also known as “Bounekräitchen” or “sarriette”. It is a herb that grows next to beans. It tastes like a mix of dried thyme and oregano, so you could use that as a replacement. And yes, you can use smoked bacon instead of the sausage, that will also taste nice.
