   Wash the potatoes, place them in a pot, cover with water and bring to a boil covered. Cook for 20-25 minutes over medium heat depending on size.

4. 4.

   Add the chopped herbs to the egg white. Season with salt and pepper and whisk with a fork.

6. 6.

   Line a small tart pan (18 cm diameter) with parchment paper.
