Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

  1. Finely chop or crush the garlic. Finely dice the shallot. Thinly slice the chestnut mushrooms. Finely chop a few leaves of spinach. Remove the tarragon leaves from their stalks and finely chop.
  2. Dissolve the stock cube in a jug with 100ml boiling water, add the porcini mushrooms and leave to infuse. Drain the beans and rinse.
  3. Heat a large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on a medium heat and cook the shallot for 5-7 mins, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the garlic and cook for another minute, then the mushrooms for a further 3-4 mins. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
  4. Roughly chop the rehydrated mushrooms, then add to the pan with the tarragon, stock, cream, remaining whole spinach leaves and beans. Simmer for 5 mins, until the sauce thickens slightly. Place a lid on the pan to keep warm.
  5. Whisk the flour with a little sea salt, the chopped spinach and 400ml water. Heat a medium frying pan with 1 tsp oil on a medium-high heat. Add a quarter of the batter and cook for 1-2 mins on each side, until golden. Transfer to a plate, cover to keep warm and repeat with the remaining batter to get 4 crepes, adding a little extra oil if needed.
  6. Stir the truffle oil through the creamy mushrooms. Place the crepes onto plates, fold in half and half again, then stuff with the creamy mushrooms. Serve garnished with the pea shoots and pine nuts. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil; season with sea salt and pepper (to taste).
