1. **Cook the Potatoes:** Place the Jersey Royal potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold, salted water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until tender. If desired, add 2tbsp of Jersey butter to the water while cooking.
2. **Cook the Asparagus:** While the potatoes are cooking, steam, grill, or lightly boil the asparagus for 3-5 minutes, until tender-crisp. If boiling, add the asparagus to the potato water for the last 3 minutes of the potato cooking time.
3. **Prepare the Dressing:** In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, chopped dill, salt, and pepper. Add 2tbsp of Jersey milk to add a creamy texture.
4. **Hard Boil the eggs:** Place the Jersey eggs in a pot, cover with cold water, bring to the boil and immediately take off the heat, covering the pot with a lid. Allow to sit for 10 minutes before placing in cold water to cool down. Peel and quarter the cooled eggs.
5. **Assemble the Salad:** Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly. If large, cut them in half or quarters. Arrange the potatoes, asparagus, radishes, spring onions, and quartered boiled eggs on a serving platter.
6. **Dress and Serve:** Drizzle the lemon-dill dressing over the salad. Garnish with extra fresh dill. Serve immediately or chill for later.
Nutrition per serving (215g)
For a richer flavour, toss the cooked potatoes in a knob of Jersey butter while still warm before adding to the salad.
If you don't have fresh dill, you can use dried dill, but use about half the amount.
Add other seasonal vegetables to the salad, such as broad beans or peas.
The salad can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator, but add the dressing just before serving to prevent it from becoming soggy.
