SERVES: 4

WHAT'S IN IT?

750g baby potatoes

3/4 cup (180g) sour cream

200g baby rocket leaves

1/4 cup (70g) horseradish cream

Finely grated zest of 1 lemon & juice of 1/2

200g sugar-snap peas, trimmed

3 eggs

2 pieces hot-smoked salmon (300g in total), skin removed, roughly flaked

Extra virgin olive & dill, to serve

PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER:

In a saucepan, cover potatoes with cold salted water, bring to the boil and cook for 20 minutes or until tender. Drain, set aside to cool, then thickly slice.

To make green horseradish cream, blitz sour cream, half the rocket, horseradish cream and lemon zest and juice in a blender until smooth. Season, place in a bowl, cover and refrigerate until needed.

Blanch sugar-snaps for 1 minute in a saucepan of boiling salted water, then, with a slotted spoon, transfer to iced water to stop cooking. Drain and halve.

In the same water, cook eggs for 10 minutes, then drain and plunge into iced water to chill. Peel and finely chop.

Place potato and half the horseradish cream in a bowl, season and toss to coat. Top with sugar snaps, egg, salmon and remaining rocket. Drizzle with olive oil and scatter with dill. Serve with remaining green horseradish cream alongside.
