This salad is the sum of very democratic ingredients – they all give and take agreeably to balance in perfect harmony.
The blandness of the potato is important for offsetting all the other flavours. Nutty and slightly grainy chickpeas make a wonderful contrast to other textures and keep the paprika in check. The sweet fire of the onion perfectly balances the eggs. There is no cloying mayo dressing – instead, a slightly sharp-sweet herbal concoction.
