FRIED EGG SALAD
Chillies and eggs may seem unlikely partners, but actually work very well together. The peppery flavour of the watercress makes it the perfect foundation for this tasty salad.
Serves :
2
Preparation Method :
- Heat the groundnut oil in a frying pan. Add the sliced garlic and cook over low heat until it starts to turn golden.
- Crack in the eggs. Break the yolks with a wooden spatula, and then fry until the eggs are almost firm. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Mix the thinly sliced shallots, chillies, diced cucumber, and grated ginger in a bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the lime juice with the soy sauce and sugar. Pour this dressing over the vegetables and toss lightly.
- Set aside a few coriander sprigs for the garnish. Chop the remainder and add them to the salad. Toss it again.
- Reserve a few watercress or rocket sprigs and arrange the remainder on two serving plates.
- Cut the fried eggs into slices and divide them between the watercress mounds.
- Spoon the shallot mixture over the egg slices, and serve, garnished with the reserved coriander and watercress or rocket.
