Olivier Russian Salad Recipe - this is the Bulgarian version of a very popular Russian salad, made with diced potatoes, carrots, pickles, eggs, peas, sometimes meat like ham (some people use bologna or salami) and a creamy dressing made with mayo.
Ingredients
- 1 lb potatoes — I use Yukon Gold
- 5 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups chopped dill pickles
- 1 cup chopped carrots
- 1 1/2 cups peas
- 2/3 cups chopped salami
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon Mustard
- 1 tsp vinegar — optional
- salt + pepper to taste if needed
Instructions
-
Boil potatoes, peel and chop into small cubes.
-
Boil peas until soft, or use canned instead.
-
Boil eggs, peel and chop into small cubes.
-
Boil carrots, chop into small cubes. I like to leave them on the crunchier side, not too soft.
-
Chop pickles and meat.
-
Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Stir to combine. Serve or cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
