An important skill. As a rule, it comes in handy when you need to have a quick breakfast and rush out the door. For example, let’s say there was a roasted chicken (tabaka-style). If it wasn’t devoured by a big company right away, its fate is usually to sit in a glass dish somewhere in the corner of the fridge.
- 1 tomato
- 1 egg
- cooked chicken meat
- a bunch of arugula
- whole grain mustard
- balsamic sauce
- olive oil
In a mortar, combine 1 teaspoon of mustard, a little balsamic sauce, and olive oil (if there are no meetings ahead, feel free to add a clove of garlic). Mix until you get a smooth dressing.
Slice the tomato and egg, place the chicken meat on top, add arugula, and drizzle with the mustard dressing. That’s it! The total prep time — just 3 minutes.
The same approach works with roast beef, meat braised in wine, fish, or anything else. Experiment — add meat or fish to pasta, bruschetta, or, as in this case, salads.
