INSTRUCTIONS
Note: See the Emerils Essence Information recipe which is included in
this collection. In a saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the
leeks and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Saute 2 minutes. Remove
from the pan and turn into a mixing bowl. Stir in the cheese and white
wine. Form the mixture into eight 2-ounce cakes. Season the flour and
bread crumbs with Emerils Essence. Dredge the cakes in the flour. Dip
the cakes in the beaten eggs, letting the excess drip off. Dredge the
cakes in the seasoned bread crumbs. In a saute pan, render the bacon
until crispy, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and lentils. Season with
salt and pepper. Saute for 2 minutes. Stir in the balsamic vinegar. In
a saute pan, heat the remaining olive oil. When the oil is hot, lay
the cakes carefully in the oil. Have six cakes breaded and ready to
fry. Pan-fry the cakes for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Remove from
the oven and drain on paper-lined plate. Season the cakes with
Essence. Add the basil to the lentil mixture. Place two of the cakes
in the center of the plate. Spoon the relish around the cakes and
garnish with chives. This recipe yields 4 servings. Recipe Source:
