    Cook’s tips

    Serve any leftovers cold as a salad the following day. The potato salad is also an ideal accompaniment to oily fish such as salmon or sardines.

    This flavoursome fish with mustard is simply crying out for a bright, crisp white. Try this fabulous Italian example: Zenato Villa Flora 2009 Lugana, Veneto, Italy.
