Moldovan and Muscovite Salat Olivye
Potato salad as Russian grandmothers intended. Kind of.

Course Salad
Cuisine Russian
- 3 cups boiled potatoes peeled and cut into perfect little cubes about a quarter of an inch
- 3 hard boiled eggs cubed into the same size as the potatoes (they will crumble)
- ½ cup raw white onions cubed
- 1 can peas drained
- 1 cup mini pickles cubed, maybe semi-salted, maybe not
- 1 cup of highly controversial boiled carrots cubed
- mayonnaise and salt to taste
Put the whole cubic/spherical pile of oddly chosen veggies in a large bowl and douse with mayonnaise and salt to desired creaminess and saltiness.
Watch out for the pickles creating an over-salted sensation, cautions the grandma that did not advise semi-salted pickles.
Enjoy!
