Method

Step 1

To make the souffle, preheat the oven to 225°F (110°C). Make a bechamel sauce with the butter, flour and milk then pass through a fine sieve. Let cool, then mix in the goat's cheese, Parmesan, parsley and chives.

Step 2

Gently fold in the egg yolks. Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, and gently fold into the mixture. Butter 6 souffle moulds and place on a baking sheet. Spoon the mixture into moulds. Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool and reserve.

Step 3

To make the Parmesan cream, combine Parmesan cheese, cream and bring to a simmer, remove, blend in a blender and set aside in a small sauce pot.

Step 4

For the smoked tomato coulis, in a saucepan, sweat shallots and garlic with olive oil. Add the diced tomatoes, granulated sugar, basil and thyme; cook for 1 minute.

Step 5

Deglaze with white wine, add the vegetable stock, and simmer for 45 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste, strain through a fine sieve. Let cool and reserve.

Step 6

To plate each serving, pour ½ cup Parmesan cream in a souffle cup. Place a souffle in the centre of the cup and bake for 7 to 10 minutes or until bubbly at 350°F (175°C).

Step 7

Once cooked, drizzle the tomato coulis around the souffle, then the basil and pesto oil.
