What is Clafoutis?
Clafoutis originated in France as a baked French dessert, traditionally made with black cherries. The cherries were arranged in a buttered dish and covered with a batter. The consistency of the clafoutis is quite particular. It must be soft and a little spongy due to the eggs and small amount of flour utilised. Be careful not to overcook it.
This Clafoutis is made with sautéed yellow or red peppers which are sweet, Italian prosciutto and dairy free cheese. A scrumptious combination.

Wash, and discard the tops as well as the white flesh and any seeds. I usually peel the peppers too. I use the Victorinox serated peeler. A fantastic peeler for peeling fine vegetable skins. Cut the peppers into thin strips Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan, add the sliced peppers, finely chopped garlic and cook. Season with salt and pepper. Once cooked place the peppers into a greased baking dish. Thinly slice the dairy free cheese and place the slices over the peppers. Now add the Italian prosciutto, Beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Take care not to add too much salt as the prosciutto tends to be salty. Now add the gluten free flour, the vegetable milk and the freshly chopped herbs to the mixture and mix well. Pour the egg mixture into the baking dish and cook in a moderate oven (180°C/350°F) for about 30 minutes. Allow to cool slightly and serve with a lovely mixed salad.SAVOURY CLAFOUTIS
