Authentic Russian Salad 'Olivye'

2024-03-20 By : Admin
This Russian salad recipe is what my mom and grandmother make every time there's a family gathering or a special occasion. Leave out the ham to make this a vegetarian dish. The potatoes, carrots, and eggs do not have to be completely chilled after boiling.

Ingredients

  • 6 potatoes, peeled

  • 1 carrot, or more to taste

  • 4 whole eggs

  • 6 large pickles, cut into cubes

  • 1 (15 ounce) can peas, drained

  • ½ cup cubed fully cooked ham, or to taste

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, or to taste (optional)

  • ½ cup mayonnaise, or to taste

Directions

    1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add potatoes, bring to a boil, and cook for 5 to 10 minutes. Add carrots and whole eggs and continue boiling until potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and slightly cool mixture.

    2. Chop potatoes and carrot. Peel and chop eggs.

    3. Mix potatoes, carrot, eggs, pickles, peas, ham, and dill together in a large bowl; stir in mayonnaise until salad is evenly coated.
