Associated with Belgium by the book is about Belgian cookery (Cooking, Belgian); the recipe itself names no place (confidence 0.4). "Associated with" means only that the evidence named here links this recipe to that place. A recipe isn't labelled as representing an entire country because a source associates it with one, and regional origins are kept where the source gives them.

- Raw egg. Raw or lightly cooked egg carries a risk, above all for children, older people, anyone pregnant or unwell.
Method
- Halve and empty the tomatoes, and put a few drops of vinegar in each.
- Cook your beans, whether French beans or haricots or flageolets, and stir them, when tender, into a good thick bechamel sauce.
- Let this get cold.
- Empty out the vinegar from the tomatoes and fill them with the mixture, pouring over the top some mayonnaise sauce and parsley.
