  • Makes: 1 serving (358 g)
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Diets: Gluten-free, Dairy-free
  • Contains: beef, celery, mustard, sulphite

Ingredients

  • 220 g Potatoes, red, raw
  • 60 g Beef broth
  • 40 g Onions, raw
  • 15 g Vegetable oil
  • 12 g Vinegar, cider
  • 5 g Mustard
  • 2 g Sugar
  • 3 g Chives, fresh
  • 0.5 g Salt
  • 0.2 g Black pepper

Method

  1. Boil the unpeeled potatoes in salted water for 15-20 minutes until just tender, then drain, peel while still warm and slice thickly.
  2. Warm the beef broth with the finely chopped onion for 2 minutes.
  3. Whisk the vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt and pepper into the warm broth, then whisk in the oil.
  4. Pour the warm dressing over the sliced potatoes while they are still warm, so they soak it up, and toss gently to coat without breaking them up too much.
  5. Leave to stand for at least 20 minutes at room temperature for the flavours to absorb.
  6. Scatter with the chopped chives just before serving, warm or at room temperature.
