Ingredients

• 200 grams Smoked salmon
• 300 grams Baby potatoes
• 150 grams Green beans
• 150 grams Cherry tomatoes
• 100 grams Mixed greens
• 2 Eggs
• 50 grams Kalamata olives
• 1 tablespoon Capers
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add baby potatoes and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain and allow to cool slightly before slicing them in halves.

Step 2

In the same pot, bring fresh water to a boil and blanch the green beans for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

Step 3

Place eggs in a small saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 7 minutes for medium yolks. Drain, peel, and slice into halves.

Step 4

Prepare the vinaigrette by whisking together Dijon mustard, lemon juice, olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 5

Assemble the salad by laying a bed of mixed greens on a large serving platter or individual plates. Arrange the sliced potatoes, blanched green beans, cherry tomatoes (halved), eggs, Kalamata olives, and capers around the greens.

Step 6

Tear or slice the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces and distribute over the salad.

Step 7

Drizzle the salad with the lemon-dijon vinaigrette and gently toss if desired. Serve immediately.
