INGREDIENTS

8 eggs
75g pickled silverskin onions, finely chopped
75g cornichons, finely chopped
1 shallot, finely chopped
¼ tsp ground white peppercorns
6 pickled walnuts, thinly sliced
12 large slices of white bloomer
2 salad cress
2 x 22g packets of Salt & Vinegar Squares Crisps

MAYO
1 egg yolk
1 tsp English mustard
75ml sunflower oil
50ml walnut oil
1-2 tbsp juice from the pickle jar


DIRECTIONS


STEP 1

Put the eggs into a pan of simmering water, cook for 8 minutes then drain and run under cold water until completely cold. Peel and cut into large pieces.

STEP 2

For the mayo, put the egg yolk, mustard and a little seasoning into a small blender and whizz briefly. Whizz again and very slowly drizzle in the sunflower and walnut oils until emulsified. Stir through the liquid from the pickled onion jar to loosen. If you don’t have a small blender, this is also made easily in a bowl using an electric whisk. Pour the mayonnaise into a bowl and stir through the pickled onions, cornichons, shallot and ground white pepper. Very gently fold in the chopped boiled egg until just combined.

STEP 3

Put a layer of the thinly sliced pickled walnuts onto the bottom slices of bread, top with the egg mayo, cress and crisps, and finish with the top slices.
