Step by step recipe


Stage 1 - ⌛ 5 min.
Valay salad : Stage 1
Wash 500 g potatoes (rattes, if possible). Put into a large pan and cover with cold water.

Stage 2 - ⌛ 25 min.

Boil the potatoes until tender (a knife blade should go through them easily).

Stage 3 - ⌛ 5 min.

Prepare 1 shallot and chop very finely. Put in a salad bowl with the chopped herbs.

Stage 4 - ⌛ 8 min.

Peel the potatoes while still hot, slice into rounds and add to the bowl.

Stage 5 - ⌛ 2 min.

Pour 6 tablespoons french dressing (vinaigrette) over and mix with a fork.

It is important to do this while the potatoes are still hot so that they absorb some of the vinaigrette. This gives them a melt-in-the-mouth texture.

Stage 9 - ⌛ 3 min.

Serve without delay so that the potatoes and chicken are still warm.
