Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Green and red salad with sardines and eggs mimosa

Finely chop 4 hard-boiled eggs and set aside.

Stage 2 - 7 min.

Dice 2 slices bread and fry with 40 g butter in a small frying pan on medium heat until golden brown.

Set aside.

Stage 3 - 8 min.

Peel and grate 4 raw beetroots and put in a salad bowl.

Stage 4 - 2 min.

Shred ("en chiffonade") 10 leaves lettuce .

Stage 5 - 1 min.

Add to the bowl.

Stage 6 - 2 min.

Add 12 sardines in oil cut into pieces.

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Add the croutons, herbs and vinaigrette dressing to taste. Mix.

Stage 8

Serve plated up ("à l'assiette"), scattering the eggs mimosa on top.

Remarks

Note that it is worth trying to avoid mixing the eggs mimosa with the rest of the salad, to keep their lovely yellow colour. Otherwise the beetroot will dye them pink.

Keeping

Should be eaten as soon as possible while the croutons are still crunchy.

Passion fruit jellies

Usually to make fruit jellies or (fruit "paste"), it's like jam but you need to cook fruit pulp and sugar much longer. Unfortunately, this long cooking is bad for both vitamins and flavour. In this recipe we use a special jam gelling agent, to reduce cooking time as much as possible .
