Some chefs believe that using potatoes in Olivier salad makes the dish heavier and more unhealthy.
Indeed, the combination of ingredients in the popular salad often becomes a subject of debate among nutritionists.
The dish can be made healthier and lighter if you give up the same sausage in favor of boiled poultry or meat, and replace store-bought mayonnaise with homemade.
You can also use other food products instead of potatoes.
What can replace the component?
Turnip
For some reason, this product has fallen out of favor with housewives, but turnips are tasty and healthy. So feel free to replace your usual potatoes with this traditional ingredient.
Jerusalem artichoke
During the Jerusalem artichoke season, it is definitely worth introducing it into your diet, as it is extremely healthy. Jerusalem artichoke has a bright and interesting taste, so Olivier will literally reveal a new side to you.
The product can be introduced both raw and cooked.
Eggs
Not everyone knows that Olivier can be safely cooked without potatoes if you add the right amount of eggs. It is believed that it is the protein that will make the dish light, airy and tasty.
