I found the recipe for green scallions in the old cookbook that my mother has from the housewifery school. It was made in a rim shape and you had to put cooked vegetables in the opening in the middle and serve with tomato sauce or ham sauce. I have modified it a little and think it goes very well as a starter. I have made it in portion forms and garnished it with crispy fried ham, pine nuts and grated Eiker Holtefjell XO.
Green edge:
350 g finsnittet mangold eller spinat
50 g finhakket basilikum
3 ss smør
5 ss hvetemel
2 dl væske (kraft fra dampingen tilsatt fløte).
Salt and pepper
3 egg
1 finhakket hvitløksfedd (var ikke i den opprinnelige oppskrften, men godt).
Steam chard or spinach and finely chopped basil in a little water. Strain the water and use it in the sauce.
Sauce:
Melt the butter with the garlic in a saucepan, add the flour and the liquid. Stir well and let it boil for a few minutes while stirring. Cool the sauce a little, before adding the green, salt, pepper and well beaten eggs.
Fill the green border mixture into a well-greased portion form or in a border form and bake in a water bath at 185 degrees for 45 minutes. Let it rest for a few minutes before putting it on plates or platters.
Slices of cured ham are placed on a baking tray covered with baking paper and placed in the oven at 200 degrees, until the ham has become crispy and has acquired a nice colour.
