Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Place a 10cm wide flan ring upside down on a greased baking sheet.
  • Layer five sheets of pastry brushed with sunflower oil over the ring to form a star.
  • Bake for 10 minutes until golden, cool for 5 minutes, and repeat to create four nests.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 200°C.
  • Boil the wild rice with bouquet garni in a large pan for 40 to 45 minutes until tender.
  • Mix the vegetables with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, seasoning, and one rosemary sprig to marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Spread vegetables on a roasting tray, cover with foil, and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and roast for an additional 15 minutes.
  • Fill nests with vegetables and juices, arrange rice around the edges, and garnish with herbs.
