Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Rub the bread with a little oil, put on a baking tray and bake for 10-15 mins until golden and crisp.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the eggs in boiling water for 10 mins, then drain and run under cold water. Once cool, peel and halve lengthways. Spoon the yolks into a bowl and add the mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard and pickling vinegar; mash to a paste.
  3. Chop the egg whites and add to the mayonnaise mixture, along with the celery, spring onions and cornichons. Mix well and season. Spoon onto a platter, or into a lidded container, and snip over the cress. Serve with the crispy rye toasts for dipping.

Tip: Make up to 3 days ahead and keep chilled.
