Appetizers - Vegetable terrine with ham and quail eggs by Rodica B. - Recipia

The vegetable terrine with ham and quail eggs sets in the fridge and slices neatly, with the eggs in the middle. The vegetables and apple are mixed with mayonnaise and sour cream, while the ham and eggs show in the cross-section; I slice it thinly and arrange it on a platter alongside the other Easter appetizers. Prep: 20 minutes. Cook: 30 minutes. Rest: 6 hours and 10 minutes. Total time: 7 hours. Serves: 8. Approximately 225 kcal and 10 g protein per serving.

Ingredients

  • 200 g vegetable mix
  • 1000 ml water
  • 1 teaspoon Maggi Secretul Gustului vegetable seasoning
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 100 ml vegetable cooking liquid
  • 1 hard-boiled egg
  • 1 raw egg
  • 100 ml oil
  • 1 lemon
  • 120 g mayonnaise
  • 1 large apple
  • 150 g ham
  • 200 g sour cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 20 g gelatin
  • 7 quail eggs

Preparation

1. Boil the vegetable mix for 10 minutes in 1000 ml water with 1 teaspoon Maggi vegetable seasoning and 1 teaspoon salt, until the vegetables are tender. Set aside 100 ml of the cooking liquid and drain the vegetables well. 2. Boil the egg for the mayonnaise for 10 minutes and the quail eggs for 7 minutes. Put them in cold water for 5 minutes, then peel them; set aside the egg white and chop it finely. 3. To make the mayonnaise, mash the cooked egg yolk with the raw yolk. Gradually pour in the oil, stirring constantly in the same direction, then add a little lemon juice; measure out 120 g for the terrine. 4. Peel the apple, cut it into small cubes and sprinkle with lemon juice. Chop the ham finely and mix it with the apple and chopped egg white. 5. Mix the sour cream with 120 g mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Bloom the gelatin in 100 ml warm, not hot, vegetable cooking liquid, then melt it over a double boiler for 3 minutes and let it cool for 5 minutes. Stir it into the sour cream and mayonnaise mixture. 6. Put the vegetables, ham and apple mixture, and gelatin cream in a bowl. Mix and adjust the salt and pepper if needed. 7. Line a loaf pan with plastic wrap. Pour in half the mixture, arrange the quail eggs in a row and cover them with the rest of the mixture. Smooth the top and refrigerate the terrine for at least 6 hours before slicing.

Notes

The vegetables need to drain well; if water is left among them, the mixture will set more softly. A firm, slightly tart apple holds its shape when mixed. I don’t rush the gelatin’s cooling time; I let it cool until it is no longer warm before pouring it into the mayonnaise and sour cream mixture. I serve it with toast and lettuce leaves; the ham can be replaced with the same amount of smoked turkey breast. It contains eggs and dairy; keep it covered in the fridge for up to 3 days, and it can be made a day ahead.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use chicken eggs instead of quail eggs?

Yes, use 2 small hard-boiled eggs and cut them into quarters before arranging them in the mixture.

Why does the terrine fall apart when I slice it?

If the middle still moves, leave it in the fridge for another hour before turning it out.

How do I stop the mayonnaise from splitting?

At first, add the oil 1 teaspoon at a time, stirring continuously in the same direction.
