- Whisk them thoroughly until mixed properly into a uniform mixture and keep aside.
- To cook the hash, drizzle oil in a large skillet and heat it over moderate heat until it shimmers.
- Throw in the potatoes and sprinkle a dash of salt as well as black pepper to season.
- Give it a nice stir to coat the potatoes completely with the seasonings and oil.
- Place a lid on top and cook them for 8-10 minutes, stirring them halfway through cooking, until the veggies are cooked properly and brown slightly.
- Stir in the shallots and sauté for 10 minutes, stirring at times, until the potatoes golden brown all over and the shallots soften.
- Adjust the seasonings if necessary and stir to mix well.
- Turn off the heat and sprinkle the salmon chunks on top of the sautéed mixture.
- Stir them all together until they are distributed evenly throughout the mixture and divide it among four serving plates.
- Serve warm alongside a bowl of prepared vinaigrette by the side.
