I need to make a French dish for my French class. I have no clue what to make. Any suggestions would be helpful. Please, nothing hard to make or expensive.

  3. French Fries

    JUST KIDDING

    I don’t know, goggle “Julia Child Recipes” She was an awesome French Cuisine cook.

  4. a Niçoise salad composed of raw vegetables, hard boiled eggs, anchovies and tuna, and olive oil. You can go to

    I dont like those kind of ingredients but its easy to make. you can make chocolate mousse

    Also, u can make crepes; which are just light pancake type things. not too hard to make; it can be dessert with chocolate and whipped cream and fruit or it can have meat, etc.

    Search french cuisine in wikipedia, and theres more recipes

    Try Vichyssoise, (Potato soup), it doesn’t get any simpler.
    1 qt of chicken broth
    8 med-to-large potatoes, peeled and quartered
    1/2 medium onion, chopped fine
    2 cups milk or cream or a mixture
    pinch of thyme
    salt and pepper to taste.

    In a heavy 3 qt saucepan, place the broth and seasonings. Bring to a gentle boil.
    Add the potatoes and onions, simmer until they’re done, about 1/2 hour.
    Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes & onions, right in the pot. Mash until they’re pretty smooth, (this will be liquidy, of course, it’ll be soup-like.) Small lumps are okay.
    Add the cream or milk and warm the soup gently, while stirring.
    Serve hot or cold (Vichysoisse is traditionally served cold but it’s so good hot too).

    Coat chicken pieces with flour. Brown a few pieces at a time in vegetable oil in a large skillet. Place pieces in a 13 x 9-inch casserole. Arrange garlic, onion, potatoes and carrots around the chicken. Drain oil from skillet. Add butter, wine, mushrooms with liquid and salt. Scrape browned bits from bottom. Pour over chicken. Cover and bake at 325 degrees F for 2 hours.

    Cook rice and mound in center of platter. Arrange chicken and vegetables around rice. Pour sauce over rice.

  7. Cocktail snack – cheese (french are fond of cheese accompanied with white wine)
    Dish- steak accompanied with a mushroom sauce
    Dessert- crème brulée (french like creme dessert)
