Step by step recipe

---

Stage 1 - 30 min.

Prepare 400 g carrot and 400 g turnip. Cut into small dice about 1/2 cm (1/4 inch) across.

---

Stage 2 - 15 min.

Cut 300 g green beans into 1/2 cm (1/4 inch) chunks.

---

Stage 3 - 10 min.

If you are using fresh peas, shell them to give 300 g peas, otherwise, use this weight of frozen peas.

---

Stage 4 - 5 min.

Bring a pan of salted water to the boil (1 tablespoon of coarse salt per liter of water). Tip in the diced carrots.

Leave to cook until tender.

---

Stage 5 - 3 min.

Remove the carrots with skimmer or araignée (spider) and drain in a strainer or colander.

---

Stage 6 - 15 min.

Cook and drain the other vegetables in turn the same way: turnips, green beans and peas.

Note: do not throw the cooking water away, as this is now a very good vegetable stock.

---

Stage 7 - 3 min.

It is important to drain the vegetables throroughly. I advise you to give them a whirl, each in turn, in a salad spinner...

---

Stage 8

... then leave them to wait on a tea towel or on absorbant paper.

---

Stage 9 - 3 min.

Finish your macédoine by mixing all the vegetables together with 100 g Mayonnaise.

Remarks

A macédoine (without mayonnaise) can also be use as a garnish or stuffing, in a fish or papillote, for example.
