Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - ⌛ 15 min.

Prepare 200 g tomato and, after cutting into small pieces, salt and leave to wait in a sieve to draw out some of the juice.

Stage 2 - ⌛ 30 min.

Boil 400 g potatoes, peel and cut in half lengthways, then into small pieces.

Stage 3 - ⌛ 20 min.

Slice 4 hard-boiled eggs when cooled.

Cut 100 g cervelas into small dices.

Stage 4 - ⌛ 5 min.

Roughly chop the parsley.

Stage 6 - ⌛ 3 min.

Put all the ingredients into a salad bowl.

Stage 7 - ⌛ 3 min.

Leave for at least an hour before serving to allow the potatoes to absorb some of the creaminess of the mayonnaise.

Remarks

You can replace the cervelas with another kind of meat or sausage of your choice, but still cut into small dice. For a vegetarian version, just leave it out.

You can replace the mayonnaise with a rémoulade dressing if you prefer. As for all salad recipes, this can be varied to suit your taste (a little more of this or a little less of that).

Keeping: A day or 2 in the fridge if the bowl is covered with plastic film .

French baguettes

This classic of French baking is rather different from the recipe for leavened bread, it's a question of making a good crust and light crumb along the whole length. To succeed, you should know that there are two secrets: water first of all (much more than for normal bread), and the working of the dough, which is also very different.

This has to be my very best favorite way to prepare potato salad. However, jh, I never thought to add cervelas, or any other kind of meat besides ham. Thanks for the clue and sharing...

Hope all is well with you and yours,
Louise:)
