Place of origin: Russia
Olivier salad is a traditional salad dish in Russian cuisine, which is also popular in many other European countries, Iran, Israel, Mongolia and also throughout Latin America. In different modern recipes, it is usually made with diced boiled potatoes, carrots, brined dill pickles, green peas, eggs, celeriac, onions, diced boiled chicken (or sometimes ham or bologna sausage), tart apples, with salt, pepper, and mustard added to enhance flavor, dressed with mayonnaise. In many countries, the dish is commonly referred to as Russian salad.
No, this salad doesn't contain olive. It's just because the creator's name is Lucian Olivier. This salad doesn't contain lettuce and that kind of vegetables you are familiar with in a salad. So this dish should be very unique to you. It also has meat so those who hate vegetable could maybe try it too.
