Classic Russian Olivye Salad
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
  • 1/2 cup cubed fully cooked ham, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise, or to taste
Instructions
1
Collect and prepare all necessary ingredients for the dish.
2
Heat a substantial amount of water in a large container until it reaches its boiling point.
3
Add diced potatoes to the boiling water and continue cooking for 5-10 minutes, or until they reach your desired level of tenderness. Next, add sliced carrots and whole eggs to the pot, continuing to boil until the potatoes are tender, approximately 10-15 minutes.
4
Remove the pot from the heat and allow it to cool slightly, reducing the temperature of the water.
5
Cut the cooked potatoes and carrots into smaller pieces. Peel and chop the eggs, preparing them for incorporation into the final dish.
6
Combine the chopped potatoes, carrots, eggs, pickles, peas, diced ham, and fresh dill in a large serving container.
7
Gradually stir mayonnaise into the mixture until it is evenly distributed, coating all ingredients uniformly.
