Russian Salad

A very simple salad, mostly known as the Russian salad and served during most Goan catholic marriages, this simple salad is one that I cannot resist. A mixture of raw, sweet and sour flavor, it a perfect blend of veggies and fruit. Here is a quick way of preparing it

Ingredients:

2 onions (diced)

2 boiled potato (diced)

Pineapple pieces

2 Capsicum (diced)

2 Tomato (diced)

1 spoon of olive oil

Few canned cherries

Chilli flakes

A pinch of black pepper

Salt as per taste

SIL Mayo paste (half a bottle)

Boiled prawns (cut in small pieces, optional)

Method:

In a bowl, pour the olive oil and mix it well with the chillies flakes, and pepper powder. Add the veggies along with the pineapple pieces and prawns. Mix well. Now add the SIL mayo paste along with it salt to this mixture and mix well. Top it with canned cherries

Serve chill.

Tips:

Ensure that the tomatoes are de-seeded before dicing. The seeds makes the entire salad soggy.
