Total Time: 45 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 2
• 2 medium potatoes
• 2 spring onions or 2 scallions
• 1 (100 g) ham steaks
• 2 eggs
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
• 1 -2 tablespoon water
• 1 -2 tablespoon vinegar

Recipe

• 1 bring a pot of water to the boil and boil potatoes for 15 minutes.
• 2 add eggs to the pot.
• 3 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.
• 4 allow to cool. the above can be done the night before and the eggs and potatoes refrigerated overnight.
• 5 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.
• 6 meanwhile, dice the cooled boiled potatoes into 1cm cubes.
• 7 peel the boiled eggs and chop them lengthways in half and then cut each half across into slices. add to potatoes.
• 8 finely chop and add the spring onions/scallions.
• 9 once the grill or pan is heated, add the ham steak and cook until heated through and a little charred.
• 10 remove the steak from heat and allow to cool, slightly. dice into even cubes and add.
• 11 in a small bowl mix together lemon juice, mayonnaise, mustard and vinegar. add water until the dressing reaches the desirable consistency.
• 12 pour dressing over other ingredients, season with salt/pepper, toss and divide evenly onto plates.
• 13 serve with a lighter side salad such as cherry tomatoes, baby spinach and cucumber.
