Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½kg baby new potatoes , larger ones halved
1 frisée lettuce
bunch chives , snipped
1 tbsp plain flour
4 tsp caster sugar
2 tsp mustard powder
2 eggs
100ml white wine vinegar
150ml double cream
squeeze lemon juice

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15 mins. Drain well in a colander and steam dry for 5-10 mins.
  • Make the salad cream by mixing the flour, sugar, mustard powder and some seasoning in a bowl, then beat in the eggs and white wine vinegar. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the base does not touch the water, and stir continuously until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5-10 mins.
  • Remove from the heat and cool. Add the cream and lemon juice to taste. Cover and chill until you are ready to dress the potatoes.
  • Pick over the frisée, discarding any damaged leaves, then tear into bite-sized pieces. Toss the potatoes in the salad cream along with most of the chives. Arrange the frisée on a platter or in a large bowl. Spoon over the potatoes and scatter with the rest of the chives.
