Remoulade with root vegetables

This remoulade is particularly good with fish cakes and other fried or baked fish. You can vary it by changing the vegetables and seasoning. Why not try a Jerusalem artichoke remoulade served with baked Jerusalem artichokes and flavoured with a little truffle oil?

Instructions

Root vegetables

Peel and chop the root vegetables into small, chunky cubes. Place them in a roasting tin and toss them in oil, vinegar, wine, curry powder, salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for approx. 20 minutes at 180 degrees, until tender but still firm to the bite, and the liquid has reduced around them. Then leave to cool. Mix the baked root vegetables with mayonnaise, chervil and yoghurt, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
