We deviated from the original recipe by using chard instead of spinach, and by choosing veal over pork escalopes. I don't particularly like pork and I think it causes arthritis.
Cut stem and leafs of the chord in slices, blanch them in simmering water and shock them with ice water. In a wide pan we fry a chopped onion, add the chord and two table spoons of water. After about ten minutes, add chopped chicory, a sliced apple and some skimmed cream. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Boil it up and let it cook briefly.
Added later on Rob7534's request: We had a bottle of Jacquesson 1996, this is one of the best yet affordable vintage champagnes.

Dear Gomad and Tono
Yum, yummo, i've found Gomad's blog from Ms-MAc via Antipodeesse.
Thank you for many joys and laughes, and the photos of your wonderful food, again and again and again.
I was lucky enough to be at secondary school in the same year as AntipoDeesse. Through the recently rediscoverd Antipo I've also discovered you and the Macs (yes, all of them)

It looks indeed healthier than the 'heart-attack in a bowl' ;-)
Are you going to bake x-mouse cookies as well this year?
All of your dishes sound so delish, and the presentation is worthy of any 3-star restaurant!
What no complimentary wine specifications?
You're slipping Gomad! :)
