Cookware
baking dish · baking sheet pan · chef's knife · citrus juicer (optional) · colander · cutting board · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · oven mitts · small saucepan · spatula · whisk or fork
Directions
- Heat the oven to 450°F and set a rack in the center. Prepare a baking sheet.
- Put the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with enough water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then cover and let sit off the heat for 8 minutes, before draining and cooling under cold running water or with ice.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Cut the potatoes lengthwise into four wedges and spread on the baking sheet. Snap or trim the woody ends from the asparagus and cut the spears into 1-inch pieces; add them to the baking sheet.
- Drizzle the potatoes and asparagus with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread in an even layer.
- Roast in the oven until tender, about 10–15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, whisk lemon juice with olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Slice the shallots thinly and add to the vinaigrette, along with the almonds and capers.
- Transfer the roasted vegetables to the bowl with the vinaigrette and toss to coat. Peel and quarter the eggs lengthwise.
- Arrange the salad on plates, placing the egg wedges on top, and serve.
Two tips
- Prep ahead by boiling the eggs a day in advance and store them refrigerated until ready to use.
- For a different texture, swap in extra almonds or use a squeeze of lemon over the finished dish as a light finishing touch.
