Russian Salad with frozen Vegetables
Preparation:
  1. The essential elements of this salad are believed to be the mayonnaise and potatoes.

  2. For optimal texture, cook the potatoes with their skins on, then peel and chop them afterward.

  3. Cook the potatoes, carrots, and peas separately, adding a pinch of salt to each. Boil the potatoes with their skins until they can be easily pierced with a fork.

  4. To ensure the vegetables remain firm and easy to shape, process them carefully if you plan to serve them later. Potatoes require approximately 18 minutes of boiling, while peas and carrots need about 5 minutes.

  5. Dice the potatoes, carrots, cucumbers, eggs, and ham into cubes.

  6. Allow all cooked vegetables and the eggs to cool thoroughly before mixing them together.

  7. Combine all the vegetables, then add the boiled eggs, ham, 300 grams of mayonnaise, a tablespoon of mustard, a pinch of salt, and a dash of pepper. For a tangier flavor, you may optionally add two tablespoons of lemon juice. Mix thoroughly, garnish with parsley leaves, and refrigerate the salad for at least 2 hours. Serve the chilled salad with roast pork, lamb, or other main dishes.

  8. Enjoy in bites!
