Ingredients
 

  • 2 hard-boiled eggs
  • 2 tsp French mustard
  • salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/4 pint vegetable or olive oil
  • 4 - 6 gherkins
  • 2 tbsp capers
  • 2 tbsp parsley finely chopped
  • 1 tsp dried chervil or equivalent fresh if available

Instructions

  • Sieve the yolks of the hard-boiled eggs into a bowl and add mustard, salt and pepper.
  • Mix the raw egg yolks into the bowl and cream until the mixture is a smooth paste.
  • Add the oil a few drops at a time until the sauce is thick. If it seems too thick, add a few drops of lemon juice.
  • Drain and rinse the gherkins and capers in a sieve with cold water as they are usually packed in vinegar or brine, which can overpower the flavour of the sauce.
  • Pat dry with kitchen towels and chop finely.
  • Add to the sauce with the herbs (herbs, gherkins and capers can be chopped in the blender or food processor).
  • Mix well and taste for seasoning. Serve with all types of fried or grilled fish.
  • For a Quick Tartare Sauce Add the gherkins, capers, parsley and herbs to 150 ml (1/4 pt) mayonnaise.
