Warm Salad of Roasted Potatoes, Asparagus and Eggs with Caper Dressing

Instructions

1. 1

   Start roasting the potatoes

   Preheat the oven to 220 °C. Wash and dry the potatoes, then cut them in half. Toss them with 12 ml olive oil, 1 g salt and 0.2 g black pepper. Arrange them cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast for 18 minutes.

   
2. 2

   Add the asparagus

   Snap off the woody ends of the asparagus. Toss the stalks with 6 ml olive oil, 0.5 g salt and 0.1 g black pepper. After the potatoes have roasted for 18 minutes, add the asparagus to the baking sheet and roast for a further 10 to 12 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and golden and the asparagus is still firm to the bite.

   Mix the dressing

   Coarsely chop the capers and finely chop the dill. In a bowl, mix them with the Dijon mustard, lemon juice, water, the remaining 4 ml olive oil, 0.5 g salt and 0.2 g black pepper. Taste: the dressing should be distinctly tart, salty from the capers and well combined.
