Russian Salad

Russian Salad or Olivier Salad, a traditional salad in Russia and many other European countries. It's a favourite dish in Romania too, especially during the main holidays throughout the year. The salad is usually made with boiled potatoes, carrots, peas, meat (can be either beef or chicken), pickled cucumbers (gherkins) and red peppers, all dressed in plenty of mayo.
