Serve with Rustic French bread
Variations
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.
