     Oeufs  au  Vert

     (Eggs in a Green Sauce)

     12 eggs                         mayonnaise
     1 bunch watercress              6 T  whipping cream
     1 bunch chervil                 several small tomatoes
     4 stalks parsley                   (optional)

     With a needle, prick the rounded end of each of the eggs so that they will not
     crack while being cooked.  Put them in boiling water for 6-7 minutes, then
     plunge them into cold water  Peel them under a running cold tap, dry them
     off and arrange them in a serving dish,  having taken a thin slice from one
     side so that they will stay in place. Chop the watercress and herbs extremely
     fine:  the better this is done, the more delicate the sauce will be. Make a stiff
     mayonnaise and extend it by stirring in the cream. Add the chopped herbs,
     mix well in, and cover the eggs with part of the sauce, serving the remainder
     in a sauceboat Garnish each egg with a leaf of watercress.  if desired, the
     dish may be eaten with tomatoes.  Makes 6 servings.
