Ingredients

100 grams chicken breast
1 sprig marjoram or oregano
½ tsp  salt
100 ml double cream (50ml liquid- 50ml whipped)
 ½ tbsp port wine
freshly ground pepper


Great with pureed carrots and potato gratins
  1. Cut the chicken breast into small cubes, cover and freeze for about 30 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, rinse the marjoram, shake dry and finely chop the leaves. Whip 1/2 of the cream until stiff and chill.

  3. In a food processor, combine the chicken breast and salt and process until combined. With the motor running, gradually stream in the liquid cream and mix until creamy, emulsified and a little shiny. If you have time, pass through a fine-mesh sieve, otherwise just mix in the port wine and marjoram (or oregano) and season with very finely ground black pepper. Fold in 2-3 tablespoons whipped cream. 

  4. Shape into dumplings using 2 teaspoons and cook in boiling water until they float to the surface.  Serve.
