Many people often refuse this classic dish only because it is very harmful to their figure and health.
The ingredients for classic Olivier salad have excellent taste qualities, but cause colossal harm to the body.
What tricks will make your salad healthier?
Giving up sausage
Many people forget that processed meat products are extremely harmful to health. It is believed that regular consumption of the product can cause cancer, diabetes and obesity.
Therefore, you should not include such a dangerous product in the salad. Instead of sausage, you can use chicken, fish or meat.
This dish will be not only healthy, but also extremely tasty.
Avoiding mayonnaise
Traditionally, Olivier is prepared with the addition of mayonnaise, as this sauce becomes the final touch to the “portrait” of the classic salad.
However, mayonnaise is extremely harmful.
It can be safely replaced with Greek yogurt or even sour cream.
Use fresh cucumbers instead of pickles
It is not necessary to use a pickled cucumber when making Olivier. A fresh vegetable will make the dish lighter and more interesting.
Besides, fresh vegetables will be much healthier.
Add an apple
Not everyone knows that this healthy fruit can be safely added to a traditional salad. As a rule, the apple is peeled, doused with a small amount of lemon juice and added to the dish.
Olivier turns out tasty and healthy.
Don't forget about spices
If you decide to replace mayonnaise with healthier analogues, then you need to give them a pleasant taste. The easiest way to achieve this is with spices.
It is important to remember that spices will not only make the salad more aromatic and tasty, but will also enrich the chemical composition of the dish.
