Feeling in a bit of a retro mood, I thought I would go back to the 1960s/70s and recreate one of the periods' most popular first courses, but make a whole salad out of it.

Just add your favourite salad ingredients. Suggestions are raw avocado, cabbage, shredded carrot, radishes etc. Anything raw and crunchy would work well.

Chef's notes

If you wish to use homemade salad cream, I suggest you taste it for sweetness before making the Marie-Rose sauce. Use commercial salad cream if desired, but again, taste and add more vinegar or sugar to your own taste.
