Diet julienne

Cookinero 11 Mar 2025

Julienne is a French dish that is traditionally made from mushrooms and cream sauce. If you cook it according to the classic recipe, you can't avoid extra calories. For those on a diet, diet julienne is perfect. In PP julienne with mushrooms, flour, butter and fatty dairy products are excluded from the recipe. And healthy chicken breast is added to the mushrooms. The products are fried to a minimum, and the dish is still baked in the oven, so the recipe remains simple.
