Yet another recipe from the 500 ALL-TIME GREAT RECIPES cookbook, but I've tweaked it a bit, making the anchovies optional, VERY OPTIONAL for me, at least! Ingredients:
4 ounces button mushrooms, large |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed |
12 ounces shrimp, peeled, cooked |
1 dill pickles, large, finely chopped |
4 ounces fava beans |
4 ounces new potatoes, small, scrubbed |
4 ounces baby carrots, trimmed, peeled |
4 ounces baby corn |
4 ounces baby turnips, trimmed |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
4 eggs, hard-cooked, shelled |
1 pinch salt |
1 pinch pepper |
1 pinch paprika |
2 anchovies (optional) |
Directions:
1. Slice mushrooms thinly, then cut into matchsticks.
2. Combine mayo & lemon juice.
3. Fold half the mayo mixture into the mushrooms & shrimp, then add dill pickle & season to taste with salt & pepper.
4. Bring large saucepan of salted water to boil, then add fava beans & cook 3 minutes.
5. Drain & cool under running water, then pinch beans between thumb & forefinger to release them from their tough skins.
6. Boil potatoes 20 minutes & the remaining vegetables for 6 minutes.
7. Drain & cool under running water.
8. Toss vegetables with oil & divide among 4 shallow bowls.
9. Spoon on the dressed shrimp & place a hard-cooked egg in the center.
10. OPTIONAL ~ If using anchovies, cut into fine strips & with 2 strips make an X on top of each egg, then sprinkle with paprika.
