A typical dish of our gastronomy that we have dared to combine with Strawberries, to give it a sweet and fresh touch.
A starter for romantics
Method
Peel and finely laminate the Morado Garlic cloves.
Peel the Carrots and Potatoes and cut them into small dice.
Wash the Strawberries, remove their stems, and slice as thin as possible.
Put a pinch of Salt and the Garlic in a pot filled with water on medium heat. Add the Carrots and Potatoes and boil until they soften, approximately 10 minutes.
In parallel, hard boil an egg in salty water (another 10 minutes).
Remove the vegetables from the water and place them in a bowl. Then rinse the egg in cold water and shell it.
Chop the Egg and add it to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Pour a dab of Olive Oil, another of Vinegar, add a pinch of Salt, and mix thoroughly.
Add 2 or 3 tablespoons of Mayonnaise, to your own taste, and mix.
DISH PRESENTATION:

Fill the rest with the Potato Salad, pressing lightly for it to take the mould’s shape. Then carefully remove the mould.

TIPS FROM THE CHEF_Miguel Ángel Mateos:
- We can enrich the salad with peas, bonito… to adapt it to our own taste.
- By boiling the Morado Garlic with the Potatoes, the garlic loses its intensity while keeping a pleasant flavour that brings a nice aroma to the potato salad.
- Strawberries give this dish a fresh and sweet touch and change completely the overall flavour of this typical dish.
