Let's imagine a situation: there are 15-20 minutes left before the guests arrive, and you don't have any prepared dishes.

It would seem that it would be impossible to manage to whip up something festive and tasty during this time.

In fact, there is one quick salad that is in no way inferior in taste to Mimosa, herring under a fur coat, or the famous Olivier.

The preparation of the dish will take no more than ten minutes. Guests will definitely not notice the catch and will certainly be pleased with the meal.

Recipe for Ten-Minute Salad

The expert of the online publication Belnovosti in the field of cooking, cook, fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova emphasized: in order to prepare a salad as quickly as possible, you need to avoid ingredients that take too much time to cook (beets, potatoes, carrots, rice, etc.)

But to make the dish delicious and filling, you need to use such important ingredients as eggs, peas, cucumber and mayonnaise.

It is very easy to prepare the Ten-Minute Salad. First, you need to boil four eggs, peel them and cut them into cubes.

The resulting pieces need to be poured into a bowl. There you also need to put a can of green peas (of course, having drained the liquid first) and one large sliced cucumber. The vegetable should be fresh.

An important ingredient is dill: one chopped bunch will be quite enough.

Add a little salt and ground pepper to the resulting mixture.

As a dressing, it is worth using mayonnaise: try to limit yourself to one tablespoon of this white sauce.
