Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1¼ kilograms Dandelion leaves.
4 Eggs
1 teaspoon Seasalt.
1 tablespoon Vinegar.
3 tablespoons Groundnut oil.
Salt; pepper.

Directions

1 Wash the dandelion leaves. Prepare a vinaigrette sauce in a bowl with the vinegar, oil, salt and pepper.

2 Heat a saucepan with a teaspoonful of seasalt. When the water boils, break in the eggs one by one, to poach them. Cook them for 2 minutes, then slide them carefully onto a plate.

A hardy plant which grows spontaneously in Europe, the dandelion is called "pissenlit" in French, but is also known as "dent-de-lion" (lion's tooth), because of its serrated leaves which grow in clusters.
