Russian Mushroom Salad
- 2 potatoes
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 cups chopped mushrooms
- 4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and diced
- 2 red onions, finely chopped
- 1 cup mayonnaise, or to taste
- 1 cup finely chopped pickles
- 1 cup finely chopped cornichons
- Place potatoes, unpeeled, into a pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and cool until easily handled; peel and dice.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms; cook and stir until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Cover the bottom of a mold with 2 diced eggs. Layer 1 onion, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 of the mushrooms, and all the potatoes on top. Spread 1/4 cup mayonnaise, all the cornichons, remaining eggs, and another 3 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise on top. Finish layers with remaining onion, mushrooms, and mayonnaise.
- Refrigerate until firm, 1 to 2 hours. Invert onto a serving platter and lift off mold.
