Method
- Mix the vinegar, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add the red onion and set aside for at least 20 mins, stirring occasionally and pressing down into the pickling liquid.
- In a large saucepan, boil the potatoes for 20 mins or until tender. Drain well, steam-dry for 2 mins, then halve.
- In a large bowl, whisk the mustard with 2 tbsp vinegar from the onions and the oil until emulsified; season. Add the potatoes and stir to coat. Set aside for 5 mins to absorb the flavours, then stir in the herbs and soured cream.
- Boil the eggs for 8 mins, adding the green beans for the final 3 mins. Drain, run under cold water (to stop the cooking process), then peel the eggs and quarter.
- Add half the pickled onion (discarding the vinegar) to the potatoes along with the beans, cucumber, cornichons and quartered Little Gems. Gently mix together, then spoon onto a serving platter and top with the eggs and remaining onion.
