  • Preparation: 90 min
  • Cooking: 25 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (255 g)
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Diets: Dairy-free, Gluten-free
  • Contains: beef, egg, mustard

Ingredients

  • 70 g Potatoes, waxy
  • 20 g Carrot
  • 15 g Peas, frozen
  • 15 g Egg
  • 30 g Cooked beef, cold
  • 30 g Apple
  • 20 g Gherkins
  • 10 g Pickled silverskin onions (zilveruitjes)
  • 18 g Mayonnaise
  • 0.5 g Salt
  • 0.1 g Black pepper
  • 10 g Lettuce leaves
  • 15 g Tomato
  • 1 g Parsley, fresh

Method

  1. Boil the potatoes in their skins for 20 minutes, until just tender, then peel them. Cook the diced carrot in boiling water for 8 minutes, adding the peas for the last 2 minutes, and drain. Boil the egg for 10 minutes, cool it in cold water and peel it. Leave everything to cool.
  2. Cut the potatoes, carrot, beef, apple and gherkins into small cubes of about 1 cm. Halve the silverskin onions if they are large. Use beef left over from a stew or a roast; boterhamworst, a Dutch sliced sausage, makes a quicker version.
  3. Mix the potatoes, carrot, peas, beef, apple, gherkins and onions with the mayonnaise, salt and pepper until everything is coated.
  4. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour, so the flavours blend.
  5. Lay the lettuce leaves on a plate, pile the salad on top and smooth it into a mound.
  6. Garnish with wedges of the egg and the tomato and a little chopped parsley. Serve cold, as a starter, on a buffet or with bread.
