Ingredients

  • 400g spinach

     

  • 200g fresh goat’s cheese

     

  • 1 bundle of chives

     

  • 1 lemon

     

  • 2 egg yolks

     

  • 1tbsp Dijon mustard

     

  • 1 garlic clove

     

  • 2dl olive oil

     

  • sea salt

     

  • black pepper

Method

1. Rinse the spinach carefully so you get rid of all soil and dirt.

 

2. Put the egg yolks together with the Dijon mustard, garlic clove and juice from half a lemon in a blender.

 

3. Mix on slow speed and add the olive oil slowly so it emulsifies. Season with salt and black pepper.

 

4. Cut the chives with a sharp knife and add half to the sauce and blend until smooth.

 

5. Steam the spinach in a bamboo steamer for about one minute so it gets some heat and is still a bit crisp.

 

6. Serve on a plate with goat’s cheese at the bottom, add steamed spinach then drizzle with the dressing.

 

7. Sprinkle lots of chives and finish off with lemon zest, sea salt and black pepper.
