How to make Olivier salad
-
The classic Olivier recipe included hazel grouse. Later, the hazel grouse was successfully replaced with chicken, and then boiled “doctor's” sausage. I don't know, maybe 30-40 years ago, a doctor’s sausage was made from real doctors, but now a doctor’s sausage must be bought carefully.
Everything you need for a delicious salad
-
You can add boiled pork to the salad, although the sausage is more common. If you decide to use pork, in advance, even the day before, boil a piece of pork tenderloin until tender, with the addition of black and allspice peas, bay leaves, but without salt. Leave the boiled meat to cool in the broth. Then the meat will be juicy.

Doctor's sausage
-
Boil hard-boiled eggs, immediately cool them under running water and, without delay, peel them.
-
Boil potatoes in their skins, or better bake. In the oven or microwave. Boil the carrots. Baked carrots, although tastier, are poorly cleaned.
-
Let the vegetables cool down to room temperature. After cooling, peel the potatoes and carrots.
-
Next, the most difficult thing: everything must be cut into cubes.
-
Small or large – as you like. I like it better if the eggs are coarsely chopped, and everything else is diced up to 10-12 mm. Do not cut too finely, otherwise you will get porridge, and not a classic Olivier salad.

Chop cucumbers, onions and add peas
-
So, dice potatoes, carrots, eggs, pickles and fresh cucumbers. Someone cooks with fresh cucumbers, but without pickles, this is still a slightly different recipe. Finely chop the onion. Drain the liquid from the peas.

Dice carrots and eggs
-
Often peas are replaced with canned corn – they have the right, this is also not bad.
![Olivier classic salad - 10 homemade delicious recipes. Olivier ingredients]()
Dice the potatoes
-
Mix all the chopped ingredients in … Not in a bowl or saucepan! Remember: Olivier is cooked in a basin! And only in a basin!

Chop the doctor's sausage
-
Fold the salad in a bowl, season with salt, and, I advise, pepper a little with black pepper.
-
Then mix well!

Stir the salad
-
Then season with mayonnaise. The question of choosing mayonnaise is difficult. The name is the same “Provencal Mayonnaise”, but the content is completely different. You can make mayonnaise yourself, I admit it. But, as a rule, everyone has their own favorite, or rather acceptable, mayonnaise.
-
Smear from “a little” to “so that it floats” – as you like.
-
Season the salad and mix in advance, before serving. If the salad is served in portions, then put it in a salad bowl and pour over mayonnaise without stirring.
-
Olivier salad is the perfect thing! Snack, food and tradition – three in one!

Cooking description:
Salad “Olivier” is very easy to prepare, and every housewife will be able to pamper her family and guests with this tasty and satisfying dish. The key to success in preparing the salad is the right ingredients. Boiled sausage should be fresh and of high quality. Its price should not be lower than the price of meat.

Salad “Not worse than Olivier”

Why such a name? Will explain. About twenty years ago, when a bowl of Olivier simply had to stand on any festive table, I sent my spouse to the store, with a long list of all the “essentials”. I bought everything, well done! But I forgot about the potatoes. But I bought, it is not clear why, a large, juicy, bright bell pepper. Handsome, he said, attracted attention. What can you do … Here instead of potatoes and went to the salad pepper. Great salad turned out! His husband ate and praised him, saying: “And no worse than Olivier!” And the recipe stuck with us under that name. Try it!
