Ingredients:

2 carrots
one celery
3 apples
a handful of walnuts
homemade mayonnaise
Salt and pepper

  

How to prepare it:

First prepare the mayonnaise from a raw yolk and a cooked yolk, oil, lemon juice.

Wash and peel the carrots and the celery. Let the apples with skin. Cut all in thin sticks. You can also grate everything (using a grater). As you grate the vegetables, add them in mayonnaise to avoid oxidation and changing their color. In the end add walnuts, salt, pepper and mix.

Chop some fresh parsley for garnishing and place it on a large dish. Take a cup that you normally use to serve ice cream, and coat the rim of the cup. Rub around the rim of the cup with something such as a lemon wedge to moisten it. The garnish will adhere to the area that is moistened. Then lay the cup on its side so that the rim is touching the garnish, and rotate or roll the cup on the garnish so that the entire rim is coated. The cup can also just be placed upside down on the rimming ingredient and rotated somewhat to coat the rim.
