Instructions

  1. Place the cucumbers in a bowl with the salt and toss to combine.
  2. Let them sit for about 15 minutes, then rinse and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible, then pat dry with kitchen paper.
  3. Peel and roughly chop the potatoes and place them in a saucepan of cold water.
  4. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 15 minutes.
  5. Add the carrot and the onion for the last 5 minutes of cooking, then drain.
  6. Place the potatoes, carrot and onion back into the saucepan and stir briefly- this will start breaking up the potatoes. You still want partial soft chunks of potato.
  7. Peel and mash the egg, then combine all the ingredients gently together along with some salt to taste.
