Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 15 minutes

very delicate – and incredibly quick to prepare

Cut the meat into 6 slices, approximately 3 cm thick. Lightly salt (depending on the saltiness of the ham) and pepper. Wrap each slice of meat in a slice of ham. Overlap the underside. Heat the cream in a high saucepan with the cream cheese until melted (whisk until smooth). Add the dried thyme and season with salt and pepper. Reduce the sauce over medium heat. Caution: it will bubble quite a bit. Brown the meat parcels in oil in a pan on both sides until crispy and cook until medium-rare. Place the loins on preheated plates. Pour the sauce into the pan with the cooking fat and stir until the juices have combined with the sauce. Pour the sauce over the meat. Garnish with thyme sprigs. Serve with: baguettes, croquettes, and fries.
