Recipe Information

Step by step guide to making The ultimate salad

  1. Put the potatoes in a pan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Cook for 15 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. Make the goats' cheese balls. In a small bowl, mash the goats' cheese with the olive oil. Roll spoonfuls of the mixture into 8 balls. Chill in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  3. On a small plate, mix the pistachios and parsley together, and roll the balls in the mixture. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper.
  4. Meanwhile, put the beans in a pan of boiling water and simmer for 2-3 minutes, drain and refresh in cold water. Set aside.
  5. Put the cooked Jersey Royals and green beans in a large bowl and gently toss with the goats' cheese balls, radishes, tomatoes, onion, cucumber, salad and parsley.
  6. Just before serving, drizzle over the French dressing.

Cook's tip: If Jersey Royals are not in season, try some of our other delicious varieties such as British Gems, or you can use any other small new or salad potatoes.
