Ingredients

1kg new potatoes
6 medium free-range eggs
200g radishes, quartered
80g cornichons or gherkins, finely sliced 600g cooked beetroot in natural juices, roughly chopped
1 small cucumber, cut into ribbons with a veg peeler

For the dressing

100g good-quality mayonnaise
Small bunch fresh dill, finely chopped
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
½ garlic clove, crushed

Method

Cook the potatoes in a large saucepan of boiling water for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain, cool slightly, then cut into halves (or quarters if large).
Meanwhile, lower the eggs (in their shells) into a pan of simmering water and cook for 7 minutes. Remove them from the pan, then run under cold water for 2 minutes to stop the cooking. Set aside.
To make the dressing, mix all the ingredients (set aside a little of the dill) in a small bowl until well combined. Peel the eggs, then halve lengthways. Put the rest of the salad ingredients into a large bowl, stir in the dressing to coat, then top with the eggs. Scatter over the extra dill to serve.
