Step-by-step cooking of julienne in buns for the New Year's table:
1. Let's prepare the base for the julienne. Champignons need to be cleaned of dirt and cut into thin slices. Fry the chopped mushrooms in vegetable oil. When the mushrooms are browned enough, add finely chopped chicken to the mushrooms. I took a chicken leg, cutting off the skin beforehand, but you can also use fillet. Chicken meat is cooked very quickly, do not forget to just stir it, and after 5 minutes in a frying pan, the meat will be almost ready. Season the minced meat with salt and pepper to your liking.
2. Pour sour cream over the chicken with mushrooms. Choose a higher fat content so that the filling is not too watery. Simmer under the lid for 4-5 minutes.
3. To prepare the julienne molds, cut off the top of the buns (about a third) and remove the pulp so that deep bread cocotte makers are obtained. You should not choose all the pulp: the walls of the rolls can get wet from the filling, then the dish will not be very attractive.
4. In each bun, generously put the chicken filling with mushrooms, lightly press down with a spoon to make the filling "sit down" more densely. Grate cheese on top of the filling. Choose any variety to your taste, giving preference to those cheeses that melt better. Do not be afraid to overdo it with cheese: it, like butter and porridge, will definitely not spoil the taste of the snack.
5. Place the julienne buns on a baking sheet (make sure to line it with baking paper or use a silicone mat) and place in the oven. 10-12 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees will be enough for the dish to completely warm up, and the cheese is melted and slightly baked.
6. While the julienne is in the oven, let's prepare the decor. We will disassemble the broccoli inflorescence into small twigs and boil in salted boiling water. As soon as the cabbage is easy to pierce with a knife, remove the broccoli with a slotted spoon and toss in very cold water with pieces of ice. This shock effect will help preserve the rich, bright green color of the vegetable. When the cabbage inflorescences have completely cooled down in the water, discard them in a colander and drain. Dry if necessary by spreading out on a paper towel.
7. Chop large broccoli inflorescences into smaller pieces and decorate each julienne bun. This should be done immediately after the buns are removed from the oven, while the cheese is still soft and viscous.
8. Wash the red bell pepper and cut into small pieces. Decorate every portion of julienne with it.
9. Place the julienne in buns on a serving platter and serve hot.
10. And you can lay out the appetizer in a festive way, in the form of a Christmas tree - and now the julienne in buns for the New Year's table is ready to delight you with its taste, aroma, and appearance. Call your guests to the table!
