Salatka jarzynowa (Polish cooked veggie salad)
I think the origin of this dish comes from a Polish woman who had a whole lot of weird leftovers and decided to stick them together then cover them in mayonnaise. Because in Poland, we cover everything in mayo or sour cream. True story.
Ingredients:
- 1 big potato
- 1 can of sweet peas
- 3 eggs, hard-boiled
- 3-4 medium carrots
- 1 big apple
- 3-4 medium pickles (cannot be sweet, pickles in brine are best)
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
Boil carrots and the potato without peeling first. Cool completely and peel the vegetables. Cube everything, add peas and mayo, and mix until it's all fairly uniform. Add salt and pepper to taste. Eat with bread of choice or as a side with a main dish.
Options: You can add chopped up cold hot dogs or ham, substitute cucumbers for pickles, or add corn.
Enjoy!
