It’s been a while since I could cook due to the horrific weather here in Belgium the last weeks. A quick meal to resume the cooking adventure :)

That's a sexy meal.

What's in the leaf? Is that an endive?

    It's a Belgian endives leaf. Which is not the same as endives, but it is a chicory. It's a not all chicories are endives but all endives are chicory type of thing.

    They're from the same genus but different.

    Endive with egg mimosa. I wanted something a bit creamy in the plate and this was an easy one.

    Mhhh it’s mashed eggs, mayo, parsley, salt & pepper.

    Similar.

    I add finely diced onion, celery and a bit of lemon juice to my egg salad.

    I was hesitant on onions or shallots. Lemon / acidity makes everything better as well :) Celery though… must be an acquired taste or something it escapes me completely.

    Yeah celery sounds wrong in there. When i make egg salad it's basically the same as what you made. Helpful hint -- I got some Japanese Kewpie mayo last year and it makes so much better egg salad than the other brands I've tried. It makes everything better, but egg salad is the biggest improvement.
