Best 2 Ham And Egg Potato Salad With Charred Scallions Recipes

HAM & EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Halve the hard-boiled eggs and remove the yolks to a bowl. Coarsely chop the egg whites and set aside.
• To the bowl with the egg yolks, add the mayonnaise, mustard, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Using a fork, smash the mixture until smooth. Add the reserved chopped egg whites, ham, shallot, and celery. Toss to combine. If you like a creamier texture, add more mayonnaise.

LITE HAM EGG AND POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to the boil and boil potatoes for 15 minutes.
• Add eggs to the pot.
• Continue to boil the eggs and potatoes for another 15 minutes or until the potatoes are nicely cooked through. A skewer should pass easily through the centre of the potatoes.
• Allow to cool. The above can be done the night before and the eggs and potatoes refrigerated overnight.
• Start your char-grill or pan heating up, spray lightly with oil. A grill with a bit of charcoal or character is best, as it adds a more "barbequed" flavour to the ham.
• Meanwhile, dice the cooled boiled potatoes into 1cm cubes.
• Peel the boiled eggs and chop them lengthways in half and then cut each half across into slices. Add to potatoes.
• Finely chop and add the spring onions/scallions.
• Once the grill or pan is heated, add the ham steak and cook until heated through and a little charred.
• Remove the steak from heat and allow to cool, slightly. Dice into even cubes and add.
• In a small bowl mix together lemon juice, mayonnaise, mustard and vinegar. Add water until the dressing reaches the desirable consistency.
• Pour dressing over other ingredients, season with salt/pepper, toss and divide evenly onto plates.
• Serve with a lighter side salad such as cherry tomatoes, baby spinach and cucumber.
