Fremgangsmåde
Trin for trin
- 1
Boil the eggs in a small pot for 8-10 minutes until hard-boiled. Immediately transfer them to an ice bath to cool, then peel and quarter them.
Ca. 15 min.
Kokkens note: An ice bath stops the cooking process and makes eggs easier to peel.

While the eggs cook, steam or boil the potatoes until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain and let them cool slightly, then cut into halves or quarters depending on size.
Ca. 15 min.
- 3
Blanch the green beans in boiling salted water for 3-5 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and plunge them into an ice bath to stop cooking and retain their vibrant color.
Ca. 5 min.

Prepare the dressing by whisking together the red wine vinegar, dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Ca. 2 min.

Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while continuously whisking until the dressing is emulsified.
