Irish Pub Salad
Adapted from cooks.com. The most interesting part is the dressing, it’s perfect for boiled vegetables too.
Lettuce
Hard boiled eggs, quartered
Tomatoes
Red onion
Sliced boiled beets
Watercress
Slices of cucumber
Blue cheese (I used feta)
Lydia’s dressing:
2 hard boiled eggs
1/4 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 level tsp. salt
1 tbsp. soft brown sugar
1/2 tbsp. cider vinegar
4 tbsp. cream (I used sour cream)
Arrange lettuce leaves like a rose in deep bowl, biggest leaves on the outside, small leaves in the center. Scatter all or some of the listed ingredients between the leaves.
Sieve egg yolks and add sugar, salt and mustard. Blend in vinegar and cream. Chop egg whites and add some to sauce. Scatter the rest over the salad. Do not dress salad beforehand. Serve dressing separately.
