Description
- Lyonnaise Salad brings frisée, warm mustard vinaigrette and poached eggs into a stunning French-bistro dish you can make at home.
Ingredients
-
1 russet potato, diced
-
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
-
Salt and black pepper, to taste
-
½ shallot, finely minced
-
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
-
1 tablespoon white vinegar
-
2 large eggs
-
1 medium to large head frisée lettuce, cleaned and torn into bite-sized pieces
-
2 tablespoons reserved cooking oil (from sautéed plant-based or turkey alternative if desired)
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
Toss diced potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on one baking sheet.
-
Roast the potatoes for 20–25 minutes, tossing halfway through, until golden and crispy.
-
Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook your plant-based or turkey bacon alternative (if using) until crispy. Drain on a paper towel and reserve 2 tablespoons of the cooking oil.
-
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the minced shallot, Dijon mustard, and white vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Slowly add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the reserved cooking oil while whisking, until fully emulsified. Adjust seasoning if needed.
-
Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer.
-
Crack each egg into a separate small bowl. Stir the simmering water to create a gentle whirlpool and slide in an egg. Use a spoon to help the whites form around the yolk. Repeat with the second egg.
-
Poach for 3–4 minutes until whites are set but yolks are still soft. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well on a towel.
-
In a large bowl, toss frisée with the vinaigrette until well coated.
-
Divide greens between two plates. Top with roasted potatoes and cooked protein (if using), then place a poached egg on each.
-
Season with additional salt and pepper and serve immediately.
