Américaine (American) - salad with potato, egg and tomato
A simple and filling salad that can be used both as a side dish and as a lunch in itself.

- 8 potatoes ( 1 lbs ), cooked, slices
- ½ stalk (1½ oz) celery, julienne
- 1 small onion (2 oz), thinly sliced
- 4 eggs, hard-boiled

Julienne : cut into pieces the size of matches
Vinaigrette : dressing made with 1 part vinegar / 3 parts oil. You can use lemon instead of vinegar. Salt and pepper. Use plenty of salt.
