1. For the runner bean cream: peel the carrot and onion, chop into small cubes. In a pan, toss the vegetables in butter with a pinch of salt.

2. Add the beans, 50 cl of water and thyme. Simmer for 20 minutes. Once the beans are cooked, drain and blend finely with broth, incorporating the cream until a fine and fluid texture.

6. Pour the runner beans mixture into small verrines, pipe the foie gras mousse and decorate with the chervil leaves.
