Olivier Salad (aka Russian Potato Salad)
- 1 1/2 lb red potatoes skin on
- 2 large carrots peeled & diced
- 2 large celery stalks diced
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup diced pickles (I like claussen)
- 5 tbsp dijon mustard (yellow is fine)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mayo
- 4 boiled eggs (peeled and chopped)
- 1 green apple diced (grannysmith)
- 1 salt to taste (start with a teaspoon)
- Get your potatoes boiled until cooked through.
- About 30 to 40 min once boiling starts.
- Check doneness by placing a knife through potatoe... Should slide right off the knife when done.
- Peel the skin off the potatoe after its cooked.
- The skin should slide right off.
- Some people prefer boiling with out the skin, but that makes the potatoes watery and mushier.
- You decide.
- Drain potatoes.
- Let potatoes cool until you can handle them.
- About 30 min.
- Dice potatoes and place in a very large bowl.
- Add your carrots, celery and peas to a small pot with water and boil for 5 min.
- Drain water.
- Add all of your ingredients to the potatoes and mix very well.
- Taste.
- Add more salt until it reaches desired seasoning.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill overnight.
- Serve as a potatoe salad side dish.
- As the salad sits over night the flavors will come together and you won't believe how amazing this potatoe salad is!
