Now is a great time to conduct "rehearsals" for preparing Olivier salad for the holiday table.
Therefore, you can move away from traditional variations towards more unusual ones.
For example, you can try the English version of the popular dish. It is known that the British like to take this salad with them on an outdoor holiday as an excellent hearty snack.
What products need to be prepared?
- a standard can of peas;
- 150 grams of ham;
- 100 grams of cheese;
- two eggs;
- fresh green onions (bunch);
- half a small spoon of salt and sugar;
- a clove of garlic;
- one hundred grams of mayonnaise;
- a small spoon of Worcestershire sauce.
How to prepare the dish?
If you are "scared" by the Worcestershire sauce in the ingredients, you can always replace it: try using the same amount of lemon juice instead of the rare ingredient.
Ham can be replaced with the same amount of fried bacon.
First, you need to prepare the dressing, which is the most interesting component of the dish. To do this, combine mayonnaise with chopped garlic, Worcestershire sauce, sugar and salt, and bring to a homogeneous state.
Add the peas, drained of excess liquid, to the salad bowl. Combine with the ham and chopped boiled eggs. It is better to chop the cheese into small cubes, but you can also grate it.
Chop the onion and add it to the other ingredients, mix. Before serving, season with the prepared sauce. You can also add boiled potatoes to this dish.
