Franfurt’s Green Sauce Recipe
- Separate the cooked egg yolk from the egg white of the hard-boiled eggs.
- Mix the egg yolk with oil, mustard and yoghurt until you get a creamy paste.
- Then, add the sour cream and flavour with salt and pepper.
- Finely chop the herbs and the egg white, add to the sauce and mix it well. If the consistency is too firm, add more sour cream for yoghurt.
