Directions

  1. 1

    Peel and wash the potatoes and cook them in boiling salted water for about 20 minutes. Boil eggs for about 8 minutes, rinse in cold water, peel and halve. Peel, wash and slice carrots.

  2. 2

    Peel the kohlrabi, cut into six pieces and cut into slices. Wash the pods, dab dry and cut into strips. Steam carrots and kohlrabi in a pot covered with a little water for about 5 minutes until al dente.

  3. 3

    Cook the sugar snap peas for 2-3 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and some sugar. Dice ham. Heat the oil in a larger pot. Brown the ham cubes briefly in it and take them out. Heat fat in hot frying oil.

  4. 4

    Stir in the flour and sweat. Deglaze with cream, milk and stock, bring to the boil and simmer for 1-2 minutes while stirring. Remove the vegetables from the water and add them to the ragout with the eggs. Season to taste with salt, pepper, sugar and lemon juice.

  5. 5

    Wash the herbs, dab dry and, except for some chervil for garnishing, pluck leaves from the stems. Chop the leaves finely and stir them into the sauce, except for a little bit for sprinkling. Drain the potatoes and arrange on plates with ragout, sprinkle with ham and chopped herbs and garnish with chervil.
