WARM SALAD OF TOULOUSE SAUSAGE, GRILLED CHORIZO, POTATO AND CHIVE SALAD.
Not the conventional salad you might expect, i’m using toulouse sausages, these are really tasty pork sausages from the midi pyrenees in france, probrably the nicest we have sampled for a while although, you could use any type of sausage that you may have in the fridge.
Serves 4
Ingredients
3-4 Toulouse sausage
8 Slices chorizo
8 Charlotte potatoes
3-4 Shallots
1 Bunch chives
100Ml vinaigrette
1 Pkt mixed salad leaves
Method
Cook potatoes. When cooked drain, and let them cool down, dice them evenly and pop into the fridge to harden.
Place the chorizo on a tray, ready to be put under the grill for a few minutes before serving.
Slice the toulouse sausage evenly, then place on a tray (should be 5 pieces a portion) cook under the grill on both sides.
Peel and chop the shallots finely, chop chives finely. Add to the potatoes and then add the vinaigrette.
Dressing the plate.
Place the potato salad in the middle of the plate, put the 5 pieces around the outside of the plate, then the chorizo pieces in between.
Put a little vinaigrette through the mixed salad leaves, then place a pile in the middle of the plate.
Happy eating!!

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.

We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
