Remarks

Of course, if you don't have both sorts of asparagus, either one will do just fine.

You can use a different cut of white meat instead of the filet mignon, such as veal or chicken.

Keeping: 1 or 2 days in the fridge, covered with plastic film.

Eggs with mayonnaise

Simply known as "œufs-mayo" in French bistros, these hard-boiled eggs are garnished with mayonnaise and are best served with sharply flavoured crudités to balance their creaminess. For this recipe, I have chosen a salad of grated carrot with shallot.
