Ooh la la my take on a delicious French classic – Salade Parisienne
Salade Parisienne is a French bistro classic, the kind of dish you will find in little family-owned zinc bars and cafés. It relies on fresh ingredients simple prepared and served without a lot of fuss. Salade Parisienne is technically known as a salade composée this means it is arranged in bowl rather than all the ingredients tossed together. It usually consists of lettuce, boiled egg, potatoes, diced ham, and cheese dressed in a light mustard vinaigrette.
Jersey Royals, Asparagus, Pesto, and Goat’s Cheese salad with poached Egg
This dish is made with lots of seasonal produce including Jersey Royals and local asparagus. The secret however is the homemade pesto which is well making the effort to make. You can keep it in the fridge for up to a week. You can use it to make delicious pasta with pappardella ribbons. Mix with a little cream for a tasty sauce to serve with salmon or chicken. If you use vegetarian Parmesan today’s recipe will be suitable for vegetarians.
Swedish style Meatballs and Buttery Mash
I think the last time I watched the Eurovision was as a student and coincidentally that was also when I visited Scandinavia. I can remember the beautiful scenery. The scarily expensive beer. Mountains of delicious seafood. Smorgasbords. Brunost, a creamy caramel flavoured whey cheese. And of course, the meatballs.
