1
Prepare the Eggs
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add vinegar. Gently lower eggs into the boiling water and cook for 6-7 minutes for soft-boiled eggs. After cooking, transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
2
Cook the Haricots Verts
In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and blanch the haricots verts for about 2-3 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and cool them in ice water.
3
Prepare the Frisée
Toss the frisée lettuce in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and black pepper to taste.
4
Assemble the Dish
On a plate, place a handful of frisée lettuce, add the blanched haricots verts, and top with pieces of smoked trout. Carefully peel the soft-boiled eggs and cut them in half, placing them on top of the salad.
5
Serve
Drizzle with additional olive oil, season with more salt and pepper if desired, and serve immediately.
