There is no fixed recipe for this snack (see box). Here an
attempt to make a slightly healthier version by a more
balanced choice of ingredients.
Cut the baguette in two and then cut in half, but not
completely. Keep both halves attached to each other. Fry the
Belgian fries and the beef burger. Cook the eggs for 10
minutes, cool them, remove and cut into 4 slices.
Wash the mixed salad, cut the tomato into slices. Make
cocktail sauce with mayonnaise, ketchup and a dash of
whiskey. Cut an onion into half-moons and fry in a little butter
until they are caramelized (brown in color, but not charred, of
course).
mitraillette
This Belgian snack originated in Brussels. It is
particularly popular in the French-speaking part of the
country, but Flemish chip shops are also increasingly
offering it.
French bread (baguette) and fries are the two fixed and
typical ingredients. The rest is a mishmash of what the
snack bar has in store. The dish is related to the Dutch
'kapsalon'.

Fold open the roll, spread with lettuce, fried onion, tomatoes
and egg. Cut the beef burger into strips and place them on the
vegetables.
Put a generous portion of fries on it and finish off with an
exuberant portion cocktail sauce. Forget about supper.
