Music

To make this wonderful and delicious Russian salad recipe, the first thing we have to do is cut the potatoes and carrots into medium dice. Next, we will place each ingredient in a different pot with plenty of water and a pinch of salt, and we will bring it to boil until it is tender.

At the same time, we will also put a saucepan with water, to cook the eggs. Depending on the type of egg, its cooking will vary but for this recipe of salad Russian, about 12 min.

On the other hand, we will wash a little peas to remove some of the cold and frost you may have from the freezer. Once washed, we will cook it for about 8-10 min.

When all the ingredients are cooked, we will place them in a large bowl so that they can be Mix very well and everything is distributed. We must be careful when stirring everything since the potato, when cooked, can crumble, and what we are interested in is that it remains whole.

For Mayonnaise, We will put an egg and a pinch of salt in a beater glass. We will begin to beat and add the oil at a medium stream, so that the mayonnaise is mounted and not cut. When we see that it is done, we will add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar, according to taste, and we will beat again. If the mixture comes out too thick, add a little milk to speed it up a bit.

Finally, add the mayonnaise to the mixture of ingredients, stir everything well. Later, put in the fridge and let it rest for at least 5 hours. I hope you like it.
