Prawns and Crab Souffles with Red pepper and Tarragon

Ingredients for Prawns and Crab Souffles with Red pepper and Tarragon

• Grated Parmesan cheese

• 60g crabmeat (about 100g )

• 120ml small cooked prawns (about 100g )

• 40g (packed) well-drained roasted red peppers from jar

• 2 tablespoons fresh whole tarragon leaves

• 1/4 xícara (1/2 tablete) de manteiga

• 5 colheres de sopa de farinha de trigo comum

• 1 chalota grande, picada

• 1/8 teaspoons (scant) cayenne pepper

• 300ml de leite integral

• 60ml de vinho branco seco

• 6 gemas de ovo grandes

• 1 colher de chá de sal

• 8 large egg whites

• 90g grated Parmesan cheese

Position rack in centre of oven and preheat to 204°C. Butter one 10-cup soufflé dish or six 1 1/4-cup soufflé dishes; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to coat. (If using 1 1/4-cup dishes, place all 6 on rimmed baking sheet.) Combine crab, prawns, roasted peppers and tarragon in processor; chop finely, using on/off turns.

Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour, shallot and cayenne. Cook without browning until mixture begins to bubble, whisking constantly, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk, then wine. Cook until smooth, thick and beginning to boil, whisking constantly, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix yolks and salt in bowl. Add yolk mixture all at once to sauce; whisk in quickly. Stir in crab mixture. Using electric mixer, beat whites in large bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold 1/4 of whites into lukewarm soufflé base to lighten. Fold in 90g Parmesan cheese, then remaining whites. Transfer soufflé mixture to prepared dish.

Place soufflé in oven. Bake soufflé until puffed, golden and gently set in centre, about 40 minutes for large soufflé (or 25 minutes for small soufflés). Using oven mitts, transfer soufflé to platter and serve immediately.
