Serves 4
1 1/3 lbs new potatoes 1 bunch dill 4 lettuce leaves 4 slices coarse bread scant 1 oz butter or margarine 1/2 lemon 1/2 tsp honey good 1/3 cup olive oil 1 egg yolk 1/2 tbs French mustard good 1/3 cup creme fraiche or sour cream 1 3/4 oz walnuts salt, pepper
Scrub the potatoes (no need for peeling if the skin is thin), put it in boiling water with the dill and let boil for a few minutes. Turn off the heat and let them draw in the saucepan until cold.
Now let's make a potato sandwich! A simple and cheap dish which is deliciously good. Spread the bread with butter and put a lettuce leaf on each slice. Slice the potatoes and put a little "lump" of potatoes on each sandwich. It's best if the potatoes have been boiled the same day you're going to eat the sandwich, because too much of the taste will go away otherwise.
Beat together mustard, lemon juice, honey, egg yolk, and a little salt. Beat the sauce for a few minutes so that it gets slightly "tough". Slowly beat in the oil until it becomes a mayonnaise!
Chop the walnuts and mix them in the mayo together with the creme fraiche or sour cream. Flavor with salt and pepper and put a dollop on each sandwich, sprinkled with chopped dill.
