Step-by-step preparation of Lenten Olivier
Boil 4-5 medium-sized potatoes and 2 small carrots in their skins. You can do this in a double boiler or in water. In the latter case, drain the vegetables and let them cool in the open air.
It’s better to wait until it cools completely, so it will not only be easier to peel the vegetables, but they will also retain their shape much better and will not crumble.
Cut them into cubes and place them in a saucepan or salad bowl. To go with them, cut 3-4 salted or pickled cucumbers into small pieces.
Open the can of green peas, drain the liquid and add the grains to the rest of the ingredients. Salt, add pepper to taste and season with lean mayonnaise. Mix well and garnish with a few sprigs of fresh parsley.
You can serve this salad immediately.
Lenten Olivier: recipe with mushrooms
For this salad, mushrooms can be used both fried and marinated. Canned mushrooms can simply be drained and drained, then cut, and fried mushrooms can be prepared as follows.
- We wash 400 g of fresh champignons, place them on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture and chop finely.
- Place in a large preheated frying pan and fry in oil over fairly high heat. It is necessary that the mushrooms are browned to a crisp, and not stewed.
- We salt them, pepper them and, as soon as the color suits us, remove them from the heat and let them cool.
- Meanwhile, boil carrots in their skins - 1 pc. and potatoes - 4 pcs. Cool, peel and chop into cubes.
- Chop 2 small or 1 large fresh cucumber and add to the vegetables.
- Add cooled mushrooms, 1 jar of green peas without liquid, season with lean mayonnaise, salt and pepper.
Onions go very well with this salad. It can be used fresh, finely chopped and simply doused with boiling water, or you can lightly marinate it in vinegar - this will give the taste greater piquancy, especially in combination with fried mushrooms.
How to pickle onions
To do this, chop 1 small onion and fill it with hot vinegar solution (part 5% vinegar and part boiling water). Leave for 30 minutes, then drain and add to salad.
Season and stir. Serve the finished salad immediately.
Just like in the previous recipe, we can use two types of squid - boiled and canned.
To add canned squid, we just need to take a couple of jars, drain the liquid, and finely chop the carcasses into cubes.
But to put boiled squid in a salad, we buy them frozen (3 small or 2 medium) and boil them.
How to boil squid
Put the water on the fire, but do not add salt.
Place the carcasses immediately into boiling water and cook for no more than 3 minutes so that they do not become rubbery.
- Remove the hot squid, add salt and let cool. In the meantime, we are working on the remaining ingredients for the salad.
- Boil 3 medium potatoes and 1 carrot along with the peel in a double boiler. Let cool, peel and chop finely.
- We also chop 2 pickled cucumbers and add them to the vegetables.
- Open the green peas and put ½ can of grains into the salad. Cut the cooled squid into cubes.
- Season with lean mayonnaise, add allspice and nutmeg to taste.
If you wish, you can flavor the salad with chopped onions - this amount will require 1 small onion.
Mix everything and put in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Serve the salad chilled, garnished with fresh herbs.
