5. Mince half of it and blanch for 3-4 minutes in the bouillon.
6. Add 0.85 cups milk. Reduce to ¼. Salt, pepper and mix, keeping it warm.

8. Put it on a plate to roast with 0.42 cups milk.

11. Incorporate the crème fraiche into the sauce. Boil and add the rest of the wild cress.
12. Mix by adding butter and put it in the Chinese tin-plate.
