Ingredients
- 300g baby potatoes, larger ones halved
- 2 eggs
- 1 x 160g pack tender green medley
- ½ shallot, very finely chopped
- 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, plus 1 tsp to drizzle
- small handful of basil leaves, finely chopped, plus extra to garnish
Step by step
- Bring a large pan of water to the boil and cook the potatoes for 15 minutes or until tender. Gently lower in the eggs to cook with the potatoes for the final 7 minutes, and the green medley for the final 3 minutes. Drain the potatoes, eggs and vegetables in a colander, then remove the eggs and leave the potatoes and vegetables to steam dry. Run the eggs under cold water until cool enough to handle, then peel and halve.
- For the dressing, whisk together the shallot, vinegar and mustards. Slowly add the oil, whisking until emulsified. Season to taste.
- In a bowl, combine the dressing with the potatoes, vegetables and basil. Divide between plates, top with the eggs, and then garnish with extra basil, freshly cracked black pepper and a final drizzle of oil.
