Preparation method

How do you make this?

Roasted Rhubarb-Strawberry Compote: Cut the rhubarb into 1 cm pieces and halve the strawberries. Set aside some strawberries for garnish. Mix the honey with the scraped vanilla pod and add it to the strawberries and rhubarb in a baking dish. Roast for 25 minutes at 185°C, let cool, and mix well.

Brioche Bread: For the preparation of the brioche bread, follow this link https://www.sofiedumont.be/recept/shokupan/ to the recipe. Cut the cooled bread into slices about 2 cm thick, or into rectangles for a 'chef plate' presentation.

French Toast: Whisk the cream, milk, honey, and the scraped vanilla bean together well. Dip the slices of brioche bread in the mixture so they are nicely coated all around. Let rest for 5 minutes. Melt butter in a non-stick pan, lightly sprinkle the slices with fine sugar, and cook them for 3-4 minutes on each side. Let them caramelize nicely. For the 'chef brioche', also cook the sides.

Greek Citrus-Vanilla Yogurt: Mix the scraped vanilla pod and seeds into the yogurt along with the lemon zest, honey, lemon verbena, and chia seeds. Let rest for 10 minutes so the chia seeds can thicken.

Chili-Honey: Finely chop the chili pepper and let it simmer briefly with the honey. Set aside. Roasted Pistachio Butter: Grind the pistachios finely in a food processor with a pinch of fleur de sel, until a smooth butter (about 15 minutes).

Serving: Dress a dollop of yogurt on the plate, place the fried French toast on top. Add a quenelle of the compote and finish with fresh strawberries, slices of rhubarb, and lemon verbena leaves. Serve the chili-honey on the side.
