1.
Peel and trim the carrots, leaving a bit of green. Peel the lower third of the asparagus and cut into 3-4 cm pieces. Peel the shallots and slice them into half-moons. Clean the chanterelles thoroughly. Sauté the shallots, carrots, and asparagus in hot butter for 1‑2 minutes. Deglaze with broth, season with salt and pepper, cover and simmer gently for about 8 minutes. Add the chanterelles and continue cooking uncovered for another ~5 minutes until tender. Stir in cream and parsley, taste and adjust seasoning.

Bring about 1 L of water to a boil, add vinegar, then remove from heat. Crack each egg into a cup and carefully slide it into the vinegar‑water mixture. Poach for 4‑5 minutes (the water should not boil again). Remove with a slotted spoon, place on top of the ragout, garnish with parsley, and serve.
