What You’ll Need:

  • Micro croutons
  • 1 slice of bread rolled flat with a rolling pin and cut into tiny squares
  • Olive or any flavoured oil
  • Remoulade
  • 1 pointed cabbage, finely shredded
  • 2 tbsp wholegrain mustard
  • 1 tsp drained and chopped capers
  • 25g finely chopped cornichons
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp white balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tsp chopped parsley leaves
  • 1/2 tsp chopped coriander leaves
  • 130g mayonnaise
  • Freshly ground sea salt & black pepper
  • Devilled Eggs
  • 6 large eggs at room temperature
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp crème fraîche
  • Juice of ½ a lemon
  • 1 tbsp finely diced shallot
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped chives
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped coriander
  • Paprika for dusting
  • Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling

What To Do:

  • Croutons: fry the croutons in the oil until golden, drain on kitchen paper and allow to cool.
  • Remoulade: place the pointed cabbage in a mixing bowl and add the capers, cornichons, mustard, lemon juice and balsamic vinegar then mix.
  • Add the mayonnaise and chopped herbs then season with sea salt and black pepper. Cover and keep in the fridge.
  • Devilled Eggs: fill a saucepan with water, add the eggs and bring to the boil. As soon as the water is boiling set a timer for 8 minutes then remove and plunge into iced water for 10 minutes.
  • Peel the eggs and pat dry, then halve lengthways with a sharp knife.
  • Remove the yolks and place in a blender with the mayonnaise, lemon juice, shallots, crème fraîche and mustard, then blend until smooth and season to taste.
  • Place in a piping bag with a star nozzle. Pipe into the egg whites and sprinkle over the croutons, herbs and paprika, then drizzle with olive oil and serve with the remoulade. 3 halves per person.
