Warm salad with broccoli, new potatoes, artichoke, pesto & egg recipe
Prep Time:15 minutes
Cook Time:30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 new potatoes cut in half, tossed in olive oil and roasted until golden brown
  • Approx. 2 ½ cups of broccoli florets use tender stem if you prefer or a combo
  • 2 artichoke hearts quartered
  • A handful of rocket leaves
  • 2 Tbsp basil pesto or to taste
  • 1 free-range poached or fried egg soft is best
  • 1 ½ Tbsp toasted pumpkin seeds
  • Salt and pepper
  • Olive oil

Instructions

  • Roast your potatoes and steam your broccoli for 3 minutes in a pot of shallow boiling water. Drain and refresh under cold water. Cut the artichokes and get everything ready.
  • When you are ready to assemble the salad, poach or fry the egg.
  • In the same pot, you cooked the broccoli, heat a splash of olive oil, and add the drained broccoli and artichokes. Add the pesto and very gently toss this through.
  • Add the rocket and heat this through with the lid on. Once it’s warm, season it with salt and pepper, give it a gentle toss and assemble your salad.
  • Place the warm roasted (and seasoned) new potatoes on the bottom of a bowl and then top with the warmed broccoli and artichokes coated in basil.
  • Top with your egg and a sprinkle of toasted pumpkin seeds and eat immediately.
